Kentucky is ranked 24th in latest poll and Louisville is unranked. Great job Coach Stein.
24 in AP

Top 25 in his first 4 games, impressive!
Is Louisville still on a collision course with the National Championship?
UK #24 after the first 4 weeks in the season.
Louisville .... #16 ? ... #17???? #20??? No , waitaminute .... #26,27,28,29 ... wow .....
#34, after final votes are tabulated!
That wasn't the narrative people had coming into the season.

It's nice to be ranked and I love the fact that Louisville finally dropped for a loss. But considering the schedules, they will probably be back ahead of us in a few weeks.
I couldn’t believe Louisville hardly dropped in the coaches poll. It just shows regional and conference bias in the voters. I don’t know if UK truly belongs in top 25 or not but Louisville surely doesn’t
I think of that statement every time UL does a choke job. Lol
People put way to much emphasis on early season polls. So far we haven't really proven anything. Beat S. Carolina at their place and then I will say we deserve to be ranked 20 to 25. Still don't think we end the year ranked though. Don't lose sight of the goal everyone had for Atein his first year and that was to somehow win 6 games. Do that and the man is a genius.
The closest collision to the National Championship a Louisville fan will get is when they wreck their Subaru delivering pizzas to an SEC fan watching the championship game.
That just goes to show that the polls have never properly considered schedule and a good record always outweighs good competition. This is just another example of why going to 9 SEC games was utterly stupid imo.
Agreed, but it’s all about TV money. Even at the expense of some more playoff teams possibly.
I would agree Texas A&M was overratted, but we played them on their field in front of 100k and that would be extermely harder than what LSU did coming off a loss at home. That said, I think our rank is fair anywhere between 20-30. Beat usc this weekend and we should solidify our top 25 ranking. Should be a good one.
UL lol.
Put them in the SEC and they are a 6-6 team most seasons. They get to prop their program up by saying "hey we went 9-3 this year." But they lack context. Beating up on Syracuse, Cal, Stanford, Duke and Boston College every week is not an accomplishment. UK would go 9-3 every year with their schedule.

Your statement is 100% accurate. A buddy sent me the roster talent ratings last weekend, Louisville's roster comes in at a highly rated #41 over all and UK is at #23. The ACC is an absolute garbage conference.
The only reason UL was ranked is because most pollsters thought they'd go 10-2 or 9-3 with that HS schedule. Go to their message board if you want a good laugh. They think losing to Wake Forest at home is the same as Ole Miss losing to Florida and Tennessee losing to number one Texas. Do they really think Ole Miss and Tennessee would lose to Wake Forest? Lol, clowns.
I thought going to 9 games was going to mean immediate playoff expansion for the reasons u listed.
Idk why the sec os being so stubborn over 24 teams. That helps UK too. We make the playoffs way more with 24 teams than 12 or even 16
