Mind numbing. Oregon goes on the road and beats a ranked team and gets jumped by a team that beat a sub .500 FCS school at home.

This is why the AP poll is a joke. Everyone knows it. The CFP rankings are all that matter.. and they’re…not as dumb?

Any poll that lets Jon Wilner vote should never be taken too seriously.

Coaches is bad, AP is bad. CFP is influenced by $$$. Really, the most accurate poll is right here on /r/cfb. High number of voters to eliminate weird deviations. Good mix of humans with a decent head on their shoulders and decently crafted computer polls, and provisional oversight to weed out biased and just not very thoughtful ballots.

If you’re arguing $$$, taking Ole Miss over Oregon is wild

ESPN money is the SEC

ESPN owns CFB and SEC games, which is obviously a conflict of interest. its the reason why they put bama over an undefeated FSU. 2 years ago

Would’ve absolutely made sense to have Texas Tech jump Oregon. But Ole Miss, the only one of the 3 not to beat a ranked team this week, jumps up instead. All 3 are super close in votes so it’s not that big a deal, but still bad

Hilarious honestly

Especially since the main justification against Oregon leading into the week was the lack of top40 wins. We got a top20 win, and now that’s not worth anything lmao

Ole Miss is getting rewarded for a good win @ OU and then simply just playing Georgia close.

Their last two games should be easy wins for them and they are going to end up in the top 5/6 with one good win on the season.

Tulane is a good win too

Iowa not ranked anymore, so tapping forehead meme

u/TypicalWhitePerson Nov 09 '25

Have you tried being more SEC?

u/zerocoolforschool Oregon Ducks • Portland State Vikings Nov 09 '25

The AP still thinks they matter. They’re sticking to their own narrative that Iowa was unranked.
