I do have a screenshot.
#7 is as an AAC member and #8 as a BIG XII member

They fixed it already. I have to figure out how to share my screenshot. It won't upload a Flickr photo.

Or did they?
ESPN must've made another mistake because now they list Texas A&M at #7 and Cincinnati still #8 according to the updated poll in the link I shared earlier.
This is worse than the article from a headline earlier this year which referred to the Presbyterian Blue Hose as the Blue Horse.

UC keeps winning and keeps getting passed up by different teams each week.
Folks, there is no chance any G5 ever needs to worry about the CFP.

It’s too bad that Memphis is picked to finish 5th in this conference. Apparently nobody thought to explain that to our players and coaches.

Well, they haven't been passed by anyone with a loss. They probably will at some point, but not yet.
And they are ranked ahead of five unbeaten P5 teams, including big names like Notre Dame and Michigan.

They still could, though given the injury to Gabriel i think it's unlikely.

If we can beat the little leprechauns I think we'll move into better position.
Not that ND's any good... but you know, they're Notre Dame.

Just keep winning UC so we can all throw one big tantrum if you guys don’t get in before you leave.

Cincy has got to beat Notre Dame. It will be interesting to see how high they go if that happens.

And there are at least three losses coming for the teams ahead of them, in conference play or CCGs.

Cincy will drop a spot and Notre dame will go up a couple for playing a top ten team tough.

Would be nice but won’t matter unless Clemson loses another game. Otherwise they will end up in the 4th spot regardless and their remaining schedule stinks.
Alabama, Georgia and either A&M or Florida will split up 2 spots.
Everyone else can fight over the last one. Just what it be.

Cincy could beat Notre Dame by 40 next week and it wouldn't matter, no team outside of the cartel will ever make the playoff. Now that Texas and OU are heading to the SEC you notice we haven't heard a peep about playoff expansion, just as intended.

I have no problem with Alabama, Georgia, Oregon, Iowa, and Penn State being ahead of us. Texas A&M and Clemson should not be.

Well, I think it depends on how Notre Dame does vs Wisconsin. If Wisconsin beats the Irish, which I think is likely, then a Cincy win over ND won't mean or count for much.
But if ND beats Wisconsin, then a Cincy win over ND would move them up, or at least allow them to move up when teams above them lose.
I do agree a Cincy playoff berth is very unlikely. Cincy's schedule is just very soft by playoff standards. You can't play an AAC schedule and expect to get the same respect as schools playing tougher games. They just don't face any top-shelf tests along the way. But Notre Dame could be one.
