Georgia southern got a vote? very interesting/questionable voting considering they are 1-AA
November 13th, 2011 at 1:41 PM ^
this is the AP poll and they just vote for who they think is the best. The don't worry about that FBS stuff.
November 13th, 2011 at 1:30 PM ^
Cute.
November 13th, 2011 at 1:38 PM ^
This helps us. It gives us a higher quality win.
I want ND and Michigan to win out.
November 13th, 2011 at 1:47 PM ^
who happen to choke a lot. They also have a fine coach who happens to turn purple occasionally. Be nice to them.
November 13th, 2011 at 1:58 PM ^
They are certainly one of the better three-quarter teams out there.
November 13th, 2011 at 11:59 PM ^
That's why he's turning purple! Brian Kelly is choking! OH GOD SOMEONE GET THAT MAN A HEIMLICH MANEUVER!
November 13th, 2011 at 1:50 PM ^
I like their chances to beat Stanford.
November 13th, 2011 at 1:31 PM ^
I think Hoke has changed the tide on the rivalry. Hell people in Ohio are starting to believe him. Never in a million years I would habe thought that. Selling Michigan jerseys is a great start.
November 13th, 2011 at 1:40 PM ^
Am I the only one sick to death of this meme?
November 13th, 2011 at 1:44 PM ^
Have to agree with you. It was amusing while we were undefeated. not so much anymore. ranked 20 isn't something to brag about
November 13th, 2011 at 1:47 PM ^
I think you miss the point; it's all tongue-in-cheek. But when it gets posted on every other thread, it gets a little tiresome.
November 13th, 2011 at 1:47 PM ^
I still like it
November 13th, 2011 at 1:53 PM ^
uninteresting, or completely stupid. This thread is none of those, so it's just kind of annoying. Especially when he doesn't spell "have" right.
November 13th, 2011 at 2:15 PM ^
No you're not.
I've found it highly annoying for some time now.

Rankings don't matter to me. The goal is to beat ohio.
This Is MICHIGAN.

The goal is to win the Big Ten. Beating OSU is right after that. Followed by beating MSU and ND.
Just focusing on winning one particular game every year is for (past and future, if not present) MSU slappies.
November 13th, 2011 at 1:53 PM ^
I officially love Purdue now lol
November 13th, 2011 at 2:16 PM ^
love the old Purdue fans shirt. I mean they really own the Ohio team so they can wear whatever they want really.
November 13th, 2011 at 2:37 PM ^
The AP courts have a bunch of TCU slappies, or perhaps some major BSU haters, for the Horned Frogs to have such a big jump. Sure, they beat a top 5 team, but who in their right mind (outside of Idaho) didn't think the Broncos were frauds?
November 13th, 2011 at 8:09 PM ^
Probably people in Georgia.
November 13th, 2011 at 10:15 PM ^
November 13th, 2011 at 3:16 PM ^
the AP top 25 until the BCS poll came out and took mind baffling senseless picks to a whole new level. I think they'll end up putting Michigan at 20 this week even though I feel like they should really be in the teens somewhere.
Edit: how the heck does Oregon not jump Alabama. Alabamas loss to LSU at home was the ugliest turd of a ball game I've seen all year and Oregon held Stanford to one of their lowest scores of the year and torched them for 53 @ Stanford!!!!! Oregon lost to LSU @home, bama lost to LSU @ home, Oregon put up 27, bama put up 6. Pretty much says it all.
November 13th, 2011 at 5:32 PM ^
Oregon lost by 13, and Bama would have won if they had a decent kicker.
November 13th, 2011 at 8:11 PM ^
BSU would have too, but you don't see people making excuses for them. Rankings should not be based on what teams should have done but rather what they did.
November 14th, 2011 at 12:13 AM ^
Ok Oregon lost by 13 and Bama lost by 3 in OT.
November 13th, 2011 at 6:07 PM ^
I believe is finally a legit top 25 team
November 13th, 2011 at 10:13 PM ^
