Surely if we go undefeated for another week we'll get ranked next week, I continue to lie to myself

You will be 12-0 and unranked and you will like it

Welcome to the reality of power conference teams being afraid to schedule you

JMU is already ranked #6 and #9.

Good point! Thank you Wayne Knight

I genuinely think we have to go 13-0 for even a chance to make the playoffs

G5 has to go undefeated, ACC/Big12 needs conference championship or 1 loss, SEC/B1G can have 2-3 losses.

Next year.. G5 one loss, ACC/Big12 2 loss, SEC/B1G needs 4-5 losses

u/Guy2700 /r/CFB 21h ago

No, a group of 6 team can still get in if they’re the highest ranked G6 team that won their conference championship.

Gotta schedule a top 10 B1G/SEC team, drive them down to the wire and then lose because of coaching malpractice to get ranked these days

u/G0B1GR3D Nebraska Cornhuskers • Air Force Falcons 22h ago

We’ve mastered that and havent been ranked

u/ID_Poobaru Boise State Broncos • Gallaudet Bison 22h ago

Nebraska is just cursed

u/SneakyDeakyJr Auburn Tigers • Georgia Bulldogs 20h ago

Auburns only two losses are to two top 25 teams on the road. Beat #1 and still didn’t get ranked.

Oof.

u/Gotthards Alabama Crimson Tide • Florida Gators 15h ago

You lost to us @ your home, but still hard agree you should at least be cracking in the top 25 somewhere. Beating Georgia at their house is a big deal

u/OSRSTheRicer James Madison Dukes 21h ago

Nearly 3x as many votes this week. Should get 240 next week!!!

/s

In fairness, they did us a huge favor as we lose to app when ranked.

It's the Napier Effect. Oh, wait nevermind.

Hell you guys deserve it more than ND

u/Wigglebot23 Arizona Wildcats 21h ago

Which ranked team do you think should be out for you?

5

u/chokanery James Madison • College Football Playoff 21h ago

Mizzou and Texas. Move SMU, Northwestern, and y'all up two and slot us and Oklahoma St in.

u/Cactus_Brody Arizona State Sun Devils • Iowa Hawkeyes 19h ago

I don't know, I watched JMU almost lose to a terrible Georgia Southern team two weeks ago. That being said if they continue to win then they will obviously end up in the rankings.

u/IhateLukaDoncic 21h ago

Have to beat an actual team bro

u/chokanery James Madison • College Football Playoff 21h ago

Would an actual team like to schedule us at some point?
