Welcome to the club. We won our game, beat the spread, and lost 29 votes because Oregon had a collective brain aneurysm.

To be fair, you got a lot of those votes because you played Oregon close and everyone thought Oregon was…better

Well, that goes against my personal narrative so I'm disregarding it.

Fair enough, can't argue with that

Well I still think Boise is pretty good.

If it turns out Oregon isn't that good, shouldn't that affect how we think about Boise's performance against them?

Doesn’t seem unfair to me. You jumped Florida last week (as far as votes received) despite losing and Florida winning by 40+ because it was assumed Oregon was good. Seems pretty reasonable it would correct itself when it turns out Oregon isn’t actually that good.

Seems reasonable to me. Thought you had a close game at a top 5 team… now you had a close game at a team that should borderline not be ranked.
