SMU #23 in both AP and Coaches

[mustang1992]

We dropped quite a bit, still in the top 25 though. Navy checks in at #25 in both.

Boise should have dropped completely but of course they want the MWC to have a chance for a NY6 bowl. I think no matter what barring crazy things happening a one loss AAC team is going to get it over those overrated smurfs.

Was hoping for no less than 20, but hey, when was the last time we had this type of thing to complain about? Win out and let the chips fall where they may!!!

Seems about right.

So the American now has 4 ranked teams, plus UCF at 26.

ACC has 3- Clemson, Wake Forest, Notre Dame (if you want to say they are ACC team)

Big 12 has 3- OU, Baylor and K. State...
and ha ha! Texas didnt even play and dropped from 24 to 26!

Pac 12 has 2- Oregon and Utah..

this all seems about right to my eyes. I have watched a lot of Pac 12 this year, they are definitely not as good as the American this year.

... and I am thinking that Navy will beat Notre Dame.

THAT NAVY V. NOTRE DAME GAME IS BIG FOR THE AMERICAN

ACC has two. Notre Dame only deigns to play four ACC opponents per year, and in return gets access to ACC bowl slots. Unlike all other sports, they are not a member.

Go Navy!

Go Navy indeed...

That's about right, TBH.

[SMU_Alum11]

So if next week we take care of business against ECU (23.5 point favorite) and UCF beats Tulsa (16 point favorite). We could have 5 AAC teams in the top 25.

Sadly, some of these @$$hats that are given voting rights actually moved them up in the polls - some as high as #17

On August 15th: how many of us would've taken a #23 ranking 8-1 record on November 3rd?

No doubt about it. It's still a great time to be a Mustang!
