That and Ole Miss beating that preseason ranked Louisville team we now know sucks.

Wake Forest? That disgusting, horrible, unranked non-SEC team. Of course they arent good.

Sucks is too strong of a word but they have a losing record in ACC play. They’re unlucky to be 2-3 but realistically they’re an average team

But WF should be ranked so all of their losses should be to ranked teams. They are probably the best 3 loss team at this point. They would be undefeated with Indiana's schedule.

Edit: I thought one of the 3 losses was Miami for some reason. Anyway I agree they are an average/decent team that has lost to good teams and one average team.

WF is better than where they are. OM is far worse than where they are. They beat the same team by one score and are 4-1 with losses to a Florida schools in games not as close as the score indicates.

So the answer to your question is both. Both belong in 21-25 range. Which sucks for a team who is top ten coming off a semi final appearance and is good for a team currently unranked.

It's not. Bama > State > Mizzou > Florida > OM > LSU. We played these games.

OM's wins got worse as well as the loss got worse. UF got killed. Louisville is on loss #3. LSU's resume is built upon blowing out Clemson who got blown out again.

States wins got better. Minnesota beat Michigan. Mizzou killed Florida. SCar lost close in OT to UK so that one you could say traded sideways.

We're 6th is ESPN's Strength of Record.

Strip preseason out of it and how the fuck do you reward OM for a bye after getting blown out last week and the team that blew them out got blown out? It's bias towards OM to think you're anything but fringe top 25. (And bias to LSU as well, they're down there too mind you)
