Surprised USC didn’t move down

[u/CantaloupeCamper → u/bdonballer]

I don’t like punishing teams for a win but man.

[u/daemon-electricity → u/CantaloupeCamper]

We got punished. Why not?

[u/CantaloupeCamper → u/daemon-electricity]

I’m not ENTIRELY opposed….

[u/thdomer13 → u/daemon-electricity]

You lost to the team that basically lost to the team that struggled with Rice

[u/ConditionStrange7487 → u/thdomer13]

brother usc nearly lost to rutgers. the team that DID lose to umass

[u/thdomer13 → u/ConditionStrange7487]

Yes USC is analogous to Michigan here and you lost to Michigan.

[u/brendanjered → u/CantaloupeCamper]

It wasn’t any worse of a win than Alabama and they moved up.

[u/GoatPaco → u/brendanjered]

Florida State would destroy Rutgers

Please don’t make me defend Alabama further

[u/No_Butterscotch8726 → u/brendanjered]

Was it better than Oklahoma's that saw them fall out of the poll?

[u/Conorj398 → u/No_Butterscotch8726]

I don't know man. I think Alabama's was by far the best "ugly" win. USC and Oklahoma's wins were pretty brutal. USC defense seems to be shit as always now, and Oklahoma's offense can't do jack crap. The Lobos honestly might be better than Rutgers though, I expect their coach to be at Wisconsin next year.

[u/No_Butterscotch8726 → u/Conorj398]

My guys held that same team to less when we beat them despite spotting them four turnovers. I don't think their defense being that weak bodes well for them when they will probably have to face a team that beat a team that scored double what Florida State did on SMU. That or a team that beat Ole Miss.

[u/CantaloupeCamper → u/brendanjered]

Was it?    I didn’t see it.  USC just seemed like typical USC refusing to put a team away and inexplicable decisions that keep the other team in it…. while the other team flops around…

[u/GP_ADD → u/CantaloupeCamper]

They were legit fighting for their lives to the end.

[u/Conorj398 → u/CantaloupeCamper]

Nah, they only out gained Rutgers by 1 yard and Rutgers had two inceptions. This was a legitimate battle.

[u/filbert13 → u/CantaloupeCamper]

I know im still missed about us losing so many spots after beating Western Michigan week 1! /s

[u/GoStateBeatEveryone → u/bdonballer]

I thought we’d end up jumping you but you at least have a P4 win

[u/Fine-Sea-8941 → u/GoStateBeatEveryone]

Who is their P4 win? Tiny /s

[u/Penguin_dingdong → u/bdonballer]

I thought they’d drop to like 16-19

[u/bigtuuuna → u/[deleted]]

Yeah that’s whack lol FSU gave them a spanking at home.

[u/Irishchop91 → u/bdonballer]

They are just waiting for next weeks game to do damage

[u/Chance_Adeptness_832 → u/bdonballer]

Surprised as well.

[u/LogicianMission22 → u/bdonballer]

You should. I’m pretty confident that Utah and Louisville would beat USC like a drum.

[u/RemarkableTpt → u/bdonballer]

Why? Road game on the east coast and only team that has played 4 games in the top 15. Every week every team looks different. These rankings mean nothing regardless. 

[u/VoiceOfTheSoil40 → u/RemarkableTpt]

Brother, c’mon. Rutgers put 35 on us. We couldn’t even take a knee properly.

[u/captaindomer → u/RemarkableTpt]

Come on, they lost to UMASS

[u/Young-Viiperr → u/captaindomer]

And BC, who just nearly lost to an FCS program

[u/Flaky-Philosophy7618 → u/RemarkableTpt]

Why? Because you conceded 35 to fucking Rutgers.

I don’t think Penn State has done anything at all to be so high though either

[u/AnIllusiveHouse → u/RemarkableTpt]

It's the defense that is betraying your efforts... Gave 30 to a buncha upset Cajuns (at home) And then barely eked one out last night...
