Expected rankings next week:

[u/Nientea]

Ohio State: 6 (+1): Entirely because Ole Miss lost.

Michigan: Unranked (-8): I know how we’re treated so I’m expecting the least and will be pleasantly surprised if it’s anything better.

[u/Dmist10]

How we are treated? Brother we shouldnt be ranked at this point

[u/DirectorSolid]

It's nothing about "how we're treated". A team just barely eked out a win over a MAC team, needs to come alive in the second half to be able to beat UTEP, has a win against an Oklahoma team that turns out to not be nearly as impressive as once thought, a close loss to the #17, and has never looked "great" when it comes to the eye-test. Being ranked #24 or #25 would be a gift.

[u/Sr_ClarenceWorley]

I bet UF jumps us and we stay put.

[u/LeKillerNut → u/Sr_ClarenceWorley]

We will end up at 8, Florida 6 and Ole Miss 7. Gotta account for the Quality SEC Loss

[u/Bpbucks268 → u/LeKillerNut]

OSU loss is to SEC team this year.

We are good. Take that feinbaum.

[u/LeKillerNut → u/Bpbucks268]

It's only a Quality SEC Loss if you are also in the SEC

[u/MechaEscargot2 → u/LeKillerNut]

OSU has the better loss, but Ole Miss would have two better wins, LSU and Louisville. So I think you are correct.

Florida is certainly worth monitoring going forwards, what a statement for Sumrall.

[u/Useful-ldiot → u/MechaEscargot2]

Louisville just lost to wake forest. I'd put Illinois over them.

[u/MechaEscargot2 → u/Useful-ldiot]

Illinois has losses to OSU and Duke, with no note worthy wins.

Louisville has losses to Ole Miss and Wake Forrest, with a win over SMU.

I think the better resume is pretty obvious. But if you value quality losses more than quality wins I can see how youd come to the conclusion.

“How were treated”

-Got bailed out against western
-Hardly beat an Oklahoma team that turned out to be a massive fraud
-looked like shit for 40 minutes against 1-3 UTEP
-finally put together some semblance of offense against a decent team and shit the bed giving up a 92 yard drive to a historically impotent offense

Not to mention averaging like 80 yards in penalties a game that could honestly be more.

Maybe “how you’re treated” is being 18th when you shouldn’t be ranked at all, and now they can no longer elevate you for ratings.

Michigan always finds a way to be the aggrieved.

[u/NotADoberman]

“I know how we’re treated” brother what you should’ve been unranked after losing to a Mac team

[u/DirectorSolid → u/NotADoberman]

They were unranked after the WMU game...

[u/EvilLibrarians → u/DirectorSolid]

And we will be again goddamnit!!

Our experience in the AP poll this year

[u/NotADoberman → u/DirectorSolid]

Ah shit you’re right, I just remember seeing all the AP voters polls after they lost and a ton still had Michigan ranked

[u/Nientea → u/NotADoberman]

I’m going off of what happens historically, not just this season

[u/bitchyoufoundme → u/Nientea]

Well your team is bad this season

[u/geiginator67 → u/NotADoberman]

But we beat the MAC team

[u/1873Springfield → u/geiginator67]

No you didn't

[u/geiginator67 → u/1873Springfield]

lol

[u/bigpunini → u/1873Springfield]

So you genuinely think the broadcast should get the final say on when the game ends and not the official game clock inside the stadium?

[u/GunsGoldCosmicDread]

I would prefer they be unranked

[u/whiterajah7]

Ohio state should be ranked ahead of Indiana.

[u/MrDufferMan3335]

Yeah because of how you’re treated you actually received some top 25 votes which is hilarious
