Also, would point out SMU is in at 4-1. Ask voters to explain how SMU’s record looks better than UK’s. Would love to hear it. SMU lost to a 3 loss UL team. UK lost to undefeated top 10 Bama. SMU’s best win is FSU. UK won at TAMU and at SC. lol. Oh well.

I was expecting us to be #18 aand possibly 17 today. At the absolute worst, 22. It make 0 sense at all but I’m with everyone else, use it as motivation and take it out on LSU.

Joke. In NO WORLD does a conference road win in the SEC hurt your ranking. This is beyond idiotic.

They can't have ol Kentucky coming through making all this noise in football. Hell having the lead at half over Bama pissed em off lol.

Kentucky has an SMU and Boise State problem. About 32 AP voters put them in over the Cats. One of the AP voters that did that has James Madison ranked at #20.

The only way to fix this is to beat LSU on Saturday.

Last week we had a total of 150 points (but were ranked 24). This week we had a total of 160 points (and we were "ranked" 26).

So we actually got more votes. We likely didn't get dropped by too many people. Instead, they just elevated Missouri and Pitt.

Another interesting thing in that poll is that nobody within 6 spots of us lost. The highest ranked team that lost was Miss St at #16. They lost roughly as bad as we did against Bama, and their best win was Missouri which looks a lot better this week than last.

So really, you can make an argument that they should have fallen more than they did, but I'm not sure we can really put them ahead of us at this point.

So it truly comes down to us vs Pitt for the last spot. But guess what? This is what's BS. Pitt hasn't played anyone other than V-Tech, who I'm not sure is any good (they had the votes to finish 30th before last week's loss).

LSU fans believe that UK was dropped to prevent LSU from getting a ranked win, if they win as a slight to Kiffin.

That's as believable as the SEC and the refs hate UK and don't want us to win.

It's almost that fanbases say some stupid ****.

I think UK has a case to be ranked as high as #15 based on schedule and results. I had laid all the numbers and schedules out here but I moved it to it's own thread as it was rather lengthy.
