Another 5 spot ...

[UCFBS]

Ohio State local AP voter considered putting UCF #3, but 'chickened out' at #5 ...

I'm fine with that. Any AP voter that puts us #5, right being the 4 in the CFP, is fine with me. I'm hoping for those who go #3, but I'll take #5. Especially in the heart of Ohio.

Just a little while ago, there was talk about us not moving at all, as some felt Auburn was 'overranked.'

here's a #4 up from #11

Yep, saw that just a few minutes ago. I'm thinking a lot of #3-5 votes now.

If an Ohio State guy knows we're better than his own team that gets 20+ dropped on them by Iowa, and debates us #3-5, must be others.

wonder if we get any love from Lauren Shute who had us at #14 before we beat her Tigers. Probably not.

 

[Happy Hands]

Why are we behind 2 loss teams like OU and UGA? And what would the other team be? Cowards.

Doesn’t she write for SEC Country? No chance

UCF #5 i think this one's already shared. http://www.cleveland.com/osu/2018/01/final_ap_college_football_poll.html

Geez, even the Ohio State guy put us over Ohio State, recognizing that UCF wouldn't lose by 20 to Iowa! Com'mon Joey! At least #5!

He shouldve ranked us #3 to #5 if he wanted to be "fair". Clemson didnt belong in the Top 5. Oklahoma is ranked too high.

Dave southorn of Idaho Statesman has us at #2 - http://www.idahostatesman.com/sport...ty/boise-state-football/article193678589.html

He made the point that he thought the '09 Boise team was better than '17 UCF, but clearly the P5 wasn't as good in '17 as '09. Fair enough, disagree on the former point, but he recognized the later, so he didn't put us #4 (or lower) which he put Boise that year.

Backhanded compliment. Fine. he has to keep his Broncos fan base happy.

 

[ucfversusbcs]

I think this is six.

UCF is #2

He’s not an AP voter

 

[UCFBS]

Ohio State? They lost by 20+ to Iowa!

Ill totally defend even the Cleveland, Ohio State loving, voter for putting us #5, because he was objective enough to recognize that.

 

[ucfversusbcs]

Correction - 4 1st place votes and three second place.

 

[ucfversusbcs]

UCF is 8th.

His excuse was UCF played one good team, yet USF is ranked 24th and their SOS went to crap and only their bowl win was the only one game with a winning record.

Final AP Top 25 says 3 American teams, same as Big XII and PAC 12.

 

[muckdawg24]

I feel like we have to claw our way in every season. This is great for us and the American this year. Proof is in the pudding baby. #P6

 

[SiberianKnightmare]

The transitive property is much more legitimate when it’s a common opponent. It’s when you get to 2, 3, 4 and 5 degrees of seperartion that it loses steam.

UCF won the common opponent match ups with Bama, Georgia AND Notre Dame (Navy and Temple-same margins of victory, but UCF on the road and ND at home).

Point is based on his logic, USF shouldnt even be ranked.

 

[SiberianKnightmare]

The SoS argument is just a cover for P5 bias. If Missouri went undefeated, there is ZERO question they would be in. ZERO.

Their SoS is 66. Ours is 72. 6 spots separates 100% in from #12?

 

[hemightbejeremy]

Per real time rpi, the American has the #4 strength of schedule of all the conferences. Same when you look at other rating systems like Anderson & Hester

I think Lauren Shute voted us #2.
