Don’t agree with Kentucky being ranked. Their “big win” over A&M is very clearly not a big win and they haven’t been impressive otherwise.

Bizarre not to rank Kentucky last weekend but to rank them this weekend.

I thought they should have been ranked somewhere in 23-25 last weekend, and with A&M getting manhandled again I figured 'Ok maybe the AP voters actually did get it right not ranking Kentucky'

...Just in time for them get it wrong again, but in the opposite way.

You have to rank somebody and there were a ton of top 25 losses this week.

Kentucky played maybe the worst possible half you can play, giving up a muffed punt TD and multiple fumbles, and yet still lead at the half and covered the spread.

I think they are probably more in the 25-30 range, but let's not act like 24 is egregious when there are quite a few teams in on quality losses.

Man, it feels good to have people saying we’re overrated. It’s been awhile.

That's not how sec in conference wins work.

Now if they had gotten a quality loss to A&M, they'd have an argument to be ranked

Nah they need Kentucky to be last year's LSU. Get ranked early so when they start getting beat in conference, it's a ranked win for the playoff. The amount of Bama fans that believed they had like 5 ranked wins last year when the reality was they had one great half against Georgia was astounding.

Yeah we’re clearly a 2-10 team this year

When was the last time you won a p4 road game in front of 100,000 fans? A&M may not be the top 10 team they were in preseason, but they still have one of the highest composit recruit rankings, spent double UK in NIL. Its not a shit win by even 1 metric

Mizzou, South Carolina, Kentucky. Always 20-25 so it’s a “ranked” win for the conference. Rigged

A&M beat the piss out of Arizona State. A&M would probably win the Big 12.

But A&M has quality losses to LSU and Kentucky
