We are in a tier with Purdue & Stanford as the worst power 5 teams.
No power 5 teams appear in the tiers below us. It's great to be a dawg!

Guys....it was a joke. Strictly perception and name recognition.
I fully understand the reality.

It's infuriating.
And I know we hate NIL or whatever but look at this poll outside of the top 10. Many programs we should be able to compete with.
ASU, Illinois, USCe, Indiana, Kansas State, Iowa State, Texas Tech all ranked top 25. Several in the others with votes.

Coaches Poll top 25: Texas is No. 1 over Ohio State, SEC has most spots in preseason college football rankings
Fifteen of the top 25 teams in the preseason Coaches Poll are from either the Big Ten or SEC

Keeping with the tier format, here are my tiers of the SEC (no particular order within tiers)...
Tier 1a:
Tier 1a:
- Texas
- Georgia
- Alabama
- Tennessee
- Ole Miss
- Texas A&M
- LSU
- Auburn
- South Carolina
- Oklahoma
- Missouri
- Florida
- Arkansas
- Kentucky
- Vanderbilt
- Mississippi State
I think/hope you have OM and Oklahoma a tier too high, and Arkansas and us a tier too low.
some of these teams are wild cards, I’d put Tenn, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Florida in that group. All could be pretty good or big disappointments. I think Arkansas is a dark horse that could win 8. Auburn with Arnold is a bit of a mystery also.
