I agree. I personally see us, App and Louisiana as all 20-25 teams. No better and no worse.

I think you see a lot of 1 or 2 loss G5’s in the 20-30 range, with the one loss ones being in the Top 25. Cajuns, Coastal, App, SMU, Houston, SDSU, Fresno St. UTSA and BYU probably being in the Top 20.

Same. The only reason we're ranked as high as we are is because of preseason rankings. I do think we're a top 25 team for sure, but 17 is about the cutoff for as high as we should go IMO. You could pretty much just mix and match those teams you listed to fill out spots 18 - 25 and no one could really argue. Most teams with only 1 loss right now are Top 25 material. App is as well, especially with how they're playing now.

Well, I think that that is one of the first posts of yours I totally agree with. Not throwing shade on CCU, but to rate them higher than the others is just nonsense. Your mix-and-match comment was spot on.

Ha! As a Coastal fan, I don't expect you to agree with nearly anything I say. Hooray for shared opinions!

And fwiw, and for the first time since losing to Texas the first week, I’ll say that I’ll be disappointed if we’re not ranked this week.

LOL!!! Im a semi reformed csnbbs A-hole. So, I use to like a good scrum between conference mates every now and then. This morning, I cant think of anything more awesome than the possibility of having 3 ranked Sunbelt teams.

You should be more than disappointed. BYU up like 10 spots for beating an ACC school.
