Damn. Probably no change with writers too

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Knocking on the door...

 

[cuse10]

They're holding it against SU that they didn't hold onto the lead with Brice in at QB. Yet Tech moves back into the top 25.

 

[creatorsgam]

 

[rrlbees]

Lot fewer votes though.

 

[capeorange]

Only Notre Dame moves up when they lose. At least we didn't drop.

 

[Chip]

Root for the favorites this week. ND (vs VT), Oklahoma (vs Texas), LSU (vs Florida).

And in the not so favorites. Go Iowa State (vs Okie State), Northwestern (vs Mich State), and (cough) UMASS (vs USF).

Beating Pitt and being ranked going into the bye week would be optimal.

 

[Briancuse]

Win next week and we finally get the monkey off our back.

[OttoinGrotto]

Sounds like the heated debates about where to rank us are slowing things up.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

 

[creatorsgam]

So a win @ Pitt should make it veeeeery close.

 

[cuse10]

Had to beat Clemson to get in. No problem. Hang 50 on Pitt since the media doesn't respect SU.

 

[BlueShaq]

NCSU with BC, Florida with LSU, VT with Notre Dame, and Texas with Oklahoma all next week. Beat Pitt and we can get in there next week.

I’m not bent out of shape about it, but the fact that VA Tech is back in at #24 and we aren’t is a perfect example of why there should be no polls before week 4.

VT beat FSU, William & Mary, and a now unranked Duke team. They lost to Old Dominion by 14 at home.

SU beat WMU, Wagner, FSU, and UConn. We lost to Clemson by 4 on the road.

The only universe where that makes sense is one where VT benefits from a preseason ranking and we don’t. Which is why the polls should start after there’s at least something from the current season to evaluate.

 

[jncuse]

Syracuse is only marginally out of the AP top 25. #24 to #28 is basically a draw.

Virginia Tech 89
Oklahoma St 88
Boise St 86
South Florida 83
Syracuse 74

They will be top 25 by next week with a win.

Why is nc state ranked?

 

[longislandcuse]

Why is nc state ranked?

They’re undefeated and have been good recently.

 

[Chip]

AP increase after a loss is very encouraging.

There should be a spot for us next week if we do what’s expected of us against Pitt.

 

[FreakTalksAboutSU]

i think we would beat USF by about 3 TD if we played right now...

 

[CarolinaCuse]

Just read that the combined record of the four teams that Colorado has beaten is 1-16. Colorado is ranked.

 

[upperdeck]

without the late 4th down penalty on neb colorado never wins game one..

You mean like the last time Charlie Strong went to the Dome?
