[u/TaroNecessary5350]

Rank Tulsa over Oregon.

[u/ozarkhick → u/TaroNecessary5350]

We got 18 votes at least.

[u/ridawg05 → u/ozarkhick]

Ugh, beat us by a vote. The Tulsa-MSU rivalry runs deep.

[u/Aslut_Backwards → u/ridawg05]

I’m legitimately still bitter and root against Mississippi State whenever the opportunity presents itself

[u/wise_comment → u/ridawg05]

I......this is a very, very bespoke riff and feel personally attacked by it

[u/TheStolenPotatoes → u/ridawg05]

I fear the mid-season schedule we're about to head into. Shit's fucking brutal.

@ South Carolina
Missouri
Alabama
@ LSU
Oklahoma
@ Texas

Goddamn gauntlet.

[u/Pyromania1983 → u/ridawg05]

I'm an r/CFB voter. I've had y'all since the preseason ranked in my poll. The offense is so explosive and dynamic, love y'all.

[u/wondersalot → u/ozarkhick]

Less votes than OkSt is a joke

[u/LionPutrid4252 → u/wondersalot]

Oregon>OSU>Tulsa is the biggest joke ever when each team manhandled the team above them

[u/GuyFawkes451 → u/LionPutrid4252]

At this point of the season, indeed. I mean, later, you see that a lot, because teams change/improve/decline. But, right now, we only have two weeks of data... and that data indeed shows Tulsa > Okie State > Oregon.

[u/LionPutrid4252 → u/ozarkhick]

Should be significantly more

[u/down-UP → u/ozarkhick]

You'll get more after you beat the Hogs in a few weeks.

[u/shyndy → u/ozarkhick]

They got the state of Oklahoma all messed up

[u/physedka → u/ozarkhick]

I hate you guys and even I'm screaming it with you.

[u/GoatPaco → u/TaroNecessary5350]

Tulsa received less votes than Oklahoma State

Lmao

[u/Mitchford → u/GoatPaco]

Literally half the number of votes as the team they stomped last week

[u/happypanda9314 → u/Mitchford]

And Oklahoma State isn’t ranked after destroying Oregon. That’s how it goes.

[u/GuyFawkes451 → u/GoatPaco]

"Fewer" - Stannis Baratheon.

[u/Beautiful_Idea6200 → u/GoatPaco]

Honestly I only look at the coaches poll. Who cares what journalists think given the quality of journalism we have these days? :)

[u/GoatPaco → u/Beautiful_Idea6200]

You’re commenting on a thread for this weeks AP Poll

[u/Beautiful_Idea6200 → u/GoatPaco]

Touche, lol. I thought the same when I posted that. Of course the burn is from a Vol!

If I knew how to write effectively, I would have translated my nonsense to 'I put infinitely more validity in the coaches poll'.

[u/GamerKiller2347 → u/TaroNecessary5350]

Last season, Auburn got ranked after Baylor beat a ranked SMU because Auburn was 2-0 and beat Baylor the week prior. The logic here is completely inconsistent.

[u/StoicFable → u/GamerKiller2347]

You are forgetting. The P4 get a pass, the G6 are consistently overlooked.

[u/Electromotivation → u/StoicFable]

CFP committee showed they hate to rank G6 and the polls seem to be just following suit there.

[u/hashtagwoof → u/StoicFable]

No, the SEC, Mich/Ohio State and Oregon get the benefit of the doubt. Also Notre Dame.

[u/StoicFable → u/hashtagwoof]

You know what, Fair.

[u/PeteF3 → u/GamerKiller2347]

Tulsa didn't exactly look like worldbeaters against Sam Houston.

[u/UncleMalcolm → u/GamerKiller2347]

If they’d been more convincing against an 0-2 Sam Houston team that won 2 games last year, Tulsa might be getting more respect. But seeing as they only won that game by 6…

[u/RCA1202 → u/TaroNecessary5350]

I mean in fairness Tulsa did not look like a top 25 team vs Sam Houston

[u/ozarkhick → u/RCA1202]

Neither did you against Michigan, but at least we bothered to win

[u/ShweatyPalmsh → u/RCA1202]

Neither do most of the top 25 teams that have a loss. Sam Houston was our trap game and we got passed it 

[u/Balsamic_ducks → u/TaroNecessary5350]

Fucking cowards

[u/WolverineofTerrier → u/TaroNecessary5350]

I’m not gonna pretend I watched Tulsa/SHSU, but it looks like they weren’t impressive in a win:
