I agree that Kentucky should not be top 25 at this point with two losses (fringe at best), but Arizona is a good team that dominated a top 10 Utah all night long. Arizona was ranked earlier this year, and they definitely deserve to be ranked after last night.Do these guys even watch the games? He has Kentucky and Arizona in the top 25. Lol
I agree with general premise, but the Illini ranked win over Kansas has lost all allure. Kansas has yet to win an FBS game this year and look terrible. The Nebraska win is good, but who knows how good. Illinois can easily range from 20-30 in rankings.Didn’t ole miss just lose to a 2-2 unranked Kentucky… at home?! And the one guy only drops them from 6 to 10?!
Literally the only tough (relatively) opponent they’ve faced all year… and they lost… again, at home.
The same people will vote Illinois out of the top 25 after they’ve beaten two top 25 teams (one on the road), and only lost to the #9 team by 2 TDs, after being tied at half, on the road!
God damn, don’t tell me there ain’t SEC bias in rankings.
While I’d agree with this general premise and for a group like the basketball team that’s been ranked a ton the last 5 years, I think being ranked is very very helpful right now for building the brand to recruits/fans/transfers.If Illinois isn’t ranked this week at 4-1 I’m ok with it. Just puts a little bit of a chip on our shoulders.
we are 25 in coaches pollI think we are 24 or 25. OK St drops out Indiana comes in.
Worst part: Illinois isn't even the biggest snub in his ranking, Boise St isn't there either.Do these guys even watch the games? He has Kentucky and Arizona in the top 25. Lol
