Just...no
These people don't watch football, whoever is voting in this poll.
I am by no means a BYU fan but they have FIVE P5 wins including over two ranked opponents. Their only losses are to Boise and Baylor.
We’d be losing our mind if we had their resume and weren’t in the top 20.

Conference games will matter. We'll be good once we get a few more teams sub 100 and into the top 50-75. That's where the current AAC benefits. The SBC will get better. Depth Depth Depth.

RE: Top 25 watch
I'm glad CCU is still getting votes. It makes our win look better. If we want to claim the title of best G5 conference we need the Chants, Apps, and Cajuns to win out through the regular season. We'd have 3 ranked teams and would get a ton of attention for the CCG with two ranked teams facing off.

Two SBC teams in the top 25 and another one getting votes.
Looking good for the conference, especially seeing all three have good possibilities of winning out the regular season and inevitable collision course coming between two of them.

It's not that they won or lost. The assumption is that BYU jumped that much because UVA is that good. However the consensus is that the ACC is really bad this year so can an ACC team carry enough weight to catapult you 10 spots?
That's the question.
Personally, I think BYU and Cincinnati would be a good game and wouldn't be surprised to see BYU win. They are a quality team, but the logic of the poll is circular, at best.
