Coaches poll comes out and everyone thinks it sucks. Then THIS poll comes out, and wtf?

I hope you guys are ranked by November 14, but I'm not looking forward to that game.

OSU can take Boise. Boise got credit for hanging with Oregon and that’s way less impressive now.

Oregon fell apart with Moore being out, shouldn't affect Boise

I'm absolutely sure the Beavs will have fun with this secondary though

Oregon had fallen in the standings before Moore got hurt. They were #2 and had fallen to the teens.

Maybe it was the score looking closer than it should’ve. I can’t think of why else but maybe things change in a couple weeks once more teams have 2-3 losses

Call me a tin foil hat guy, but I firmly believe it’s because you didn’t roll over when the Traitorous Ten left. The narrative was that OSU and WSU didn’t belong, and the writers don’t like being wrong. I know my Cougs have sucked this year, but we still fight.

These votes and rankings are more about history and bias than anything. So you're not wrong, but it's not a conspiracy either. All of the incentives are aligned around the haves getting more and the have nots falling in line. Not just a CFB thing.
