I don't understand poll rankings...
Last year, at many points I felt that UC was ranked solely because of our brand name.

This year... how are we not getting ANY votes right now? I thought we'd be about 27th-30th right now.

The only mark against us is that we got blown out by Ohio State. But now OSU is 5-0 with 5 blowouts, and UC's defense held OSU offense to its fewest # of points in the whole season.

Take a look at Boise: Boise squeaked by Marshall at home. They made Marshall look like a solid team, not the team that Cincinnati crushed 52-14 on the road. Is the lack of a loss really that important?

Take a look at UCF: Is beating 2-3 Stanford that much better than beating 1-4 UCLA? Is losing to 3-2 Pitt by 1 that much better than getting blown out by Ohio State?
