You're fooling yourself. They'd need to beat Miami and blow everyone else out. You're not going to get a ranking for beating Sunbelt teams.

Can you make a case that App isn't as good as WKU at the end of last year when they were ranked? No, you can't. App got votes last year with Georgia Southern as their best win.

Don't forget that year Troy got ranked and had an almost win over Clemson and wins over Austin Peay, Southern Miss, and UMass.

Ok so, we're bragging about getting teams ranked in a year where, it's obvious that like a third of fbs isn't even playing right now? Oh... I mean if that makes you feel better. *shrug* I don't think anyone is that desperate to brag about a ranking that means nothing at the moment but carry on my guy.

No, he is right about the Top 25 this year. It isn't the same as previous years. We had 2 P5s not included, and games being postponed. App, Coastal, and Louisiana where all ranked this year at some point.
Honestly, the rankings have an asterisk this year - I hate to say.

I don't think so. People keep saying this about the NBA,MLB, and the rankings. The thing is everybody played under the same rules. So the team that came out on top or ranked still earned it. No one forced the colleges to not play.
