Frankly, I am shocked that they didn’t move ut up to at least #2.

How can they explain BSU and App state?

I don’t think they’re planning on giving an explanation other than those schools aren’t SMU.

BS!

Games that I'm going to watch and have a strong opinion on highest to lowest:

Texas vs Iowa State (-7): GO CYCLONES! GRILL SOME F-ING STEAKS!
Navy vs Notre Dame (-7): Shell the IRA!
Memphis (-10) vs Houston: A cat will die and I hope it's blue!
App St (-16) vs Georgia St: Go pointless Georgia; knock off a made up state!
West Virginia vs K-state (-14): Let's go moonshiners!
New Mexico vs Boise St (-28): I know you wont but take down the overrated less of a horse broncos!
Kansas vs Ok St (-17.5); Let's go Les! Destroy Pervy Pete

As much as this disappointments me, I do take solace in the fact that we are currently #20 AP. Won't be shocked if something happens to the lower-ranked portions of the CFP and we're back in in a week.

I have a suspicion that AP and Coaches Polls will adjust according to the CFB Playoff Ranks so there isn't such a deviation. I suspect the AP and Coaches will move to #23-25 and that way when a few lose then we will probably move to 25 in CFBP.

I find it nice that we are even talking about moving around in the top 25! Great days!

Especially if you remember the Chalmer Woodard (May he RIP) era.

I agree. But we REALLY need the Coogs to win. Most important game of the week by far.

Tulane's QB McMillan is going to cause us a good bit of problems. He is mobile, and can deliver the ball.

Not if he played like he did at Memphis - his passing was atrocious in that game.

Don't reasonably expect Memphis to lose to Houston but I do expect them to go down to Cincy. We'll see. Go Cougs!

Think we have more players that will create problems for Tulane

McMillan has passed for 59 yards midway through the 4th quarter...yikes!

Watching the Navy-ND game.

God I hope Navy plays against us the way they are playing against ND midway through the 2nd Quarter.

yep- ND crushing Navy 21-0 early second Q.
