Addict is talkin power ranking not polls. At least, that is how I took it.

My power ranking is

Oreg
Bama
Lsu
Nd
Ksu


My poll, based on resume to date......

Bama
Oreg
Nd
Ksu
Would have to look at it to determine #5

I respect you as a capper and your football knowledge but I just dont see how you put a 2 loss team in the top 5 when you have some great 1 loss teams........UL is 9-0 as well........pollsters will have LSU behind UL after tmrw. It all boils down to wins and losses.

If you must have LSU in there then what about Florida?They did beat LSU and didn't allow a TD.

Yup! Well said, I posted UGA as a legit number 5 teams after the top 4 unbeatens, UF deserves as much consideration as UGA. LSU shouldnt even be in the conversation.

Lsu is better than nd. Sorry to break it to you.

How do u figure they are better??? Just your opinion which means nothing since your a homer....My as well throw a 2 loss LSwho into a rematch with Bama in Jan and forget all the rest of the teams.

Power ranking and polls are not the same thing. I would vote lsu in the 10 range, but my POWER RANKING would be

Ore
Bama
Lsu


Nd
Ksu



It appears miscommunication is at play. That, or I am way more wasted than I think I am.

My Top 5
1.Alabama
2.Oregon
3.Notre Dame
4.K State
5A.Florida
5B.Georgia

IMO Oregon would not beat or even score 30 pts VS any SEC team, just too much size advantage in the trenches. The Ducks recruit fast athletic OL & DL with no regard to strenght and size.
Just my 2 cents

LMAO...I take it you didn't hear the announcers say Bama is dead tired on D cus LSwho ran 75 plays late in game...If they are tired from LSwho Oregon will have them begging for oxygen tanks...I don;t care for any of these teams but this homer thing with Bama can make a person throw up.

He is an SEC guy and I get that.......but you also have to be objective which he clearly isnt. He is being subjective which is why he has LSU ahead UF and UGA, both 1 loss teams......one of which beat his LSU squad......go figure!:shrug:

He's talking power rankings man and it's his opinion. It's my opinion to...do you really believe UL could play with LSU and win on a neutral field? I don't.

Side note: LSU mopped the floor with Bama tonight....it was unreal. It says alot for Bama to come out with a W and it says alot for LSU to whip Bama's ass at the line all night and rack up the type yardage they had. It is what it is, but a hell of a game by LSU's line and RB's....Mettenburger had his best game as a Tiger too. :0008

I simply feel lsu has a better defense and will be better at nd's game than nd. It's my opinion. I certainly do not feel that my extensive track record here is that of a homer, though I could be way off base.

You're far from a homer that's for sure. :toast:

Thank you. Thought I was losin my mind...lol.

Bama v oreg would be a great matchup. Sabear with time vs a ridiculous offense, plus improved oreg def vs bama 's experienced oline.

Yes I do thank you, as I stated I work in sports and have been involved on the media level for over a dozen years, so I take it personally when you are trying to tell me "do I understand" when you are mighty wrong sir with your assumption of LSU........and I have close friends in the industry who will tell you when you lose 2 games it really hurts your power ranking, sure it helps when you lose to quality opponents, but 2 losses are 2 losses any way you slice it.......guys in the media industry that have done it for 20 plus years. I invite you to come on a radio show that one of them host and they will dispute your argument on how the power rankings would be done regarding 2 losses versus a team with no losses.

I am done with this argument......I refuse to discuss this when it's clear your LSU rose tinted glasses are hurting your judgement. It is very clear that you are being subjective and not objective! I wont bother replying anymore.......:facepalm:

Agree with Cie

Agree with Cie

Look at the games and progress of teams to see who is improving...Mettenberger may have come to age tonite...the other talent around him is superior to almost anybody in the country....they have shot theirselves in the foot for top poll rankings but nobody would want to play them!!! ROLL TIDE ROLL

1...Bama
2...Oregon
3...K State
4...LSU
5...Georgia

It's MY power ranking. What does MY power ranking have to do with media, industry insiders, or anything else.
