I t surprises me that we dropped like that, I was thinking mabe 7 or 8 spots but 17 seems to be a little extreme.

I was thinking we'd drop to 21st or something... but the mainstream sports media has been waiting for this moment for a long time now...

While trying to remain humble about our loss.. I really don't think an SEC team would have dropped that far had the circumstances been similar.

The AP is a meaningless poll, the coaches poll carries more weight. And we don't belong anywhere near the top ten or fifteen after that game. Beat CU then come home for a four game home stand. Win all of them and we're 6-1 and probably setting okay rankings wise. I don't want to hear any "what about the BCS rankings" stuff, we need to worry about winning games.
