Purdue and ASU over UCF in the top 25, with UCF not even being placed, I can't recognize this poll as being realistic.

So they had to stop at 15 otherwise too many AAC teams would have been in the top 25, basically ran out of ACC, Big XII, and SEC teams worth a $hit.

Of course not, like anything it’s fun to look at and talk about but that’s about it.
Purdue and ASU in particular are funny ones because neither offer the consistency of a UCF. At least the consistency required to be a ranked program. Though I do like them both because they have an incredible tendency to obliterate the season of a BIG10 & PAC12 CFP hopeful. Almost every year they bring some chaos.

Tonight's Game, UAB @ MIAMI (FL)....
ESPiN still shows AP and Coaches Preseason Ranking, hope that this is the year that both of those Rankings will go away for good.
Guess the holsters have to keep a 6" distance from their computers due to COVID-19 thus they are unable to update the weekly Polls.

Pretty hilarious that the AP and Coaches decide not to vote just because none of the P5’s played. Just goes to show you how much of a crock of **** this really is.

BYU should have entered the poll in the 20s, and Navy would have lost its votes. It's not like there was a landslide of activity taking place..

They are called weekly polls! If you are not going to do your job, fold up the tent and go home!

If it’s no longer Week 1 nor the preseason, there should be a new poll.
Had and ACC or SEC teams played in Week 1, I can guarantee you there would have been a new poll released regardless of the degree of activity. That’s more my point.
