Mississippi State no. 1? I don't know about dethroning the champs who are undefeated and have won games vs. ranked teams.

FSU resume pales in comparison to both MSU AND Ole Miss

Look at strength of schedule and the wins. It's sort of a no brainer.

It's because FSU doesn't play in the golden conference.


Polls really don't mean crap anymore though.

3 victories against then ranked top ten teams compared to FSU victories. Get real. "Golden Conference" or not, that is way more deserving that anything FSU has done this year.

They definitely do, just not as much as before.

 

Who would you have #1 at this point?

FSU. They should be number one until they are beaten.

 

Alabama didn't look great every week last year, but remained number one all year until they lost to Auburn. I wonder why that is?

Seems to me the only people outraged about FSU dropping to 2 are FSU fans.. FSU doesn't have one dominating win against a good team this season. Mississippi State has been through murderer's row these past couple weeks and have not only won, they've won in convincing fashion.

Murderer's Row? What's so great about LSU (a game Mullen almost blew) and A&M?

And Auburn. I would wager FSU would lose to at least 2 of those 3 teams. FSU gets their chance to prove me wrong this week, but they have really looked underwhelming this season

Defending a championship doesnt really mean anything in college because there is usually so much turnover year over year.  This FSU team didnt win a national championship.  This team isnt nearly as good as last years team was.

Auburn was a good win. I just think they are getting too much credit for beating average LSU and Texas A&M teams.

Thats sort of the inevitability of the SEC West though.  Doesnt matter how good these teams are, someone has to lose.  You say A&M is average but they only have 2 losses against the teams ranked #1 and #3 in the country.  Lets say Miss St knocks off Alabama, now the Tide will have 2 losses and that win doesnt look as good.  Bama and Ole Miss could take out Auburn and now the Tigers have 3 losses and that win doesnt look as good.  Arkansas seems to be getting better and better, they may take somebody out and all of a sudden that team wont look as good.

 

Every division needs 2 or 3 lousy teams so that the top tier all get wins to make their records look better.

Alabama is in the SEC and therefore had a tougher SOS than FSU, which is in the ACC. Why is it so hard to figure that out?

Alabama's schedule last year was anything but tough.

Do you think FSU would beat Miss St right now ? I think ranking teams as it sits now is best. Last year was a different beast. Different teams altogether.
