We’re 17th in the CFP poll

[FlotownDawg]

Wow! Wasn’t expecting that.

Nice. We have some really good wins. The committee has always valued those highlight level wins over anything.

I think we’re going to beat Arkansas this weekend too.

They have always like us.

They obviously agree the Memphis loss was not legitimate.

 

[AFDawg]

17...yeah!

 

[thatsbaseball]

Other than about 3 or 4 teams....I wouldn't want to play us right about now. Great job coach Leach and team !

 

[She Mate Me]

Wow! Wasn’t expecting that.

I'm pleasantly shocked

 

[messageboardsuperhero]

I guess the committee thought they couldn’t put Kentucky, NC State, and A&M in the top 20 and totally leave out the team that beat all of them.

It’s funny how a few weeks ago many people thought the football program was on the verge of collapse and OM was going to pass us by forever. Rumors of our demise have been greatly exaggerated, but our fans fall for the BS narratives every year.

I felt like we would be 25 or 24. 17 is a shocker.

It had to be 17. Great***

That’s why we put adults in charge.

Always good to have a number by your name while you're playing. It's funny OM is one spot ahead of us.

 

[TheStateUofMS]

Agreed and this is where people would rank different than computers I would guess.

 

[cowbell88]

All part of the master plan from Cohen. Gonna come in HOT in the end!

 

[horshack.sixpack]

When was the last time we were in the CFP?

 

[GloryDawg]

When was the last time we were in the CFP?

I am guessing 2018.

 

[woozman]

I was thinking that we’d be 22ish. But we have beaten three top 25 teams…

 

[Faustdog]

The committee must not have gotten the memo that Leach’s offense will never work here. They should read this board more.

 

[Dawg1976]

No Mullen/FL in top 25? Ha

It is interesting to me how disconnected the CFP (data driven) poll is from the AP and Vegas (opinion driven). CFP unranked Hogs are favored by 5 over CFP #17 Dogs. I'm calling Dogs by 2 TDs.

 

[MSU_Braves_USA]

We're the only 3 loss team on the list. Interesting. I think we'd be tough to play against.

No doubt.
Ark, OM and Aubie are all favored against us. OM and Aubie will likely be ranked when we play them. So we have a great opportunity to strengthen our resume with wins.
We will go, at least 2-2, this month and 4-0 is not a pipe dream.

We got 17ed!
