Cost what?We drop from No. 16 to No. 20 on ESPN FPI ranking. I know letting Army have that late touchdown will cost us dearly.
Exactly who gives a crap it’s an FPI computer thingyCost what?
It’s already happened. The 2nd unit gave up a bust. BFD.
They get credit for that second major conference win. Beating ASU and Purdue. Granted ASU is garbage but that’s the reason.Fresno State being ranked is crazy, but whatever. Just win. Our time will come
Still ranked behind Clemson.
Most voting people don't know if it is 1st unit or 2nd unit. They only look at the final score. We don't have the luxury to let voters pay more attention on us. We are way outside to look getting in. Cannot afford any misstep like we did this Saturday. Let Army get 17 points, even 7 is from 2nd unit and should not matter.Cost what?

I dunno about that, it's going to be close. I feel like if Clemson wins, they'll probably get back into the top 25, but if we lose the narrative is going to be that it proves that Clemson is having a very bad down year, and we'll most likely end up around like 27th-30th. Hope we beat them and I'm wrong, but I think we have maybe a 25% chance of getting ranked at 5-0.We beat Clemson and we won’t be denied…..
Actually, their SOs is 114 and ours is 119. Right behind Maryland.They get credit for that second major conference win. Beating ASU and Purdue. Granted ASU is garbage but that’s the reason.
I could see that. But objectively, if we’re 5-0, our SOS takes a big jump up and we will have a better resume than a lot of teams in the 20s-25.I dunno about that, it's going to be close.

6-0 would get us in.
But they're the future third Power conferenceRankings by future conference:
SEC - 9
B18 - 6
ACC - 4
B12 - 2.5
PAC - 2
MWC - 0.5
Good thing the B12 got Utah otherwise their best future team is 24th in the polls.
Good lord, let it go, it’s garbage time and it doesn’t matter one bit, we would have been in the same place in both the AP and USA, whether the margin of victory was 13 or 19.Most voting people don't know if it is 1st unit or 2nd unit.

I don’t know. I realize many here think these things don’t matter, but the spread was 13.5. If we beat the spread, again, for the fourth time this year, people stop betting against us and media pundits take notice. We made the idiots on College Game Day look intelligent (except Rece Davis who is so lacking any perspective of what we might be or have done so far that he picked against us straight up).Good lord, let it go, it’s garbage time and it doesn’t matter one bit, we would have been in the same place in both the AP and USA, whether the margin of victory was 13 or 19.
100% agree. No reason for them and Kansas to have so many votes and cuse to have nothing. Fresnos best win is Syracuses best win but only by 3Fresno State being ranked is crazy, but whatever. Just win. Our time will come
