I think we are getting our definitive answer about this.......hype.


Yep I unfortunately was wrong. Sadly.

Ok quick question. FSU is #12 and UCF is #22. Doesn't this FSU win seem about right? Especially with the talent rift that occurs about T18-20??

My sense is that both teams are too high. We'll find out more by the end of this week on both of them. I will say this........neither team is going to have a lot of success, if they make it to the tourney, giving up that many goals.

I never used the word hype. I just said I was somewhat skeptical of their ranking. At least the ranking was based on actual game results and not pre-season speculation. My skepticism is based merely on the difficulty of determining exactly what their previously undefeated record really meant.

I would argue along with Zamboni that their loss to FSU isn't really unexpected and won't automatically drop them from the Top 25. We've essentially come back to my original question - can they beat Cal and Santa Clara? I would be somewhat surprised if they won both, but of course, that's why they play the games.

I don't know how Georgia Tech is still getting votes, but they have been getting blown out this year by teams not even in the poll (maybe those teams should be on there instead)
