Thank god we can stop pretending Texas is anywhere near #1.

[u/theSunking12 → u/alecowg]

No literally I’m like finally they can rank a real team as #1

[u/LongDickCallahan → u/theSunking12]

AP ranks ND #1 *

[u/Ironman2131 → u/LongDickCallahan]

Pretty sure the Georgia-Bama winner will be #1 next week. Probably followed by ND and Miami.

[u/OwnWalrus1752 → u/Ironman2131]

Knowing the AP, if Bama wins they will be #1, Georgia will drop to like 4th, and Texas will fall to 5th because they beat OSU and only lost a close one on the road to an SEC team. OSU drops to 6 and Indiana stays at 7, setting up for a beautiful 6-7 matchup on Saturday.

[u/Ironman2131 → u/OwnWalrus1752]

Something like that. I strangely feel like Texas will drop behind OSU even though they beat them. But yeah, all the top one-loss teams probably stay ahead of Indiana. But if the Hoosiers win next week they likely jump to at least #4 and might also jump Miami based on resume, so the ranking next week won't matter too much.

[u/OwnWalrus1752 → u/Ironman2131]

At this point I get annoyed by the AP poll, but Indiana didn’t get the #1 ranking last year until they won the Big Ten Championship, so clearly the ranking doesn’t really matter

[u/Ironman2131 → u/OwnWalrus1752]

Yep. As long as your team makes the CFP, that's all that matters.

[u/frogstomp427 → u/LongDickCallahan]

/r/CFB in shambles

[u/BigBusch12 → u/LongDickCallahan]

Kill me

[u/LongDickCallahan → u/BigBusch12]

FUCKING SAME. PLEASE DEMOLISH THEM. PLEASE. PLEASEEEEEEEEEE.

[u/deepsouthsloth → u/LongDickCallahan]

That's exactly what's about to happen

[u/broccoli_d → u/deepsouthsloth]

Oh stop it. The Bama-UGA winner will get every first place vote.

[u/IrishDeacon → u/deepsouthsloth]

No? We’ll be behind whoever wins Bama-Georgia.

[u/voiceOfThePoople → u/deepsouthsloth]

How shamelessly you and everyone pretend Bama didn’t get preferential treatment last year EXPLICITLY at ND’s expense 

Save the pre-outrage, if bama wins they’re #1

[u/Cold_Freedom_6690 → u/deepsouthsloth]

oh fuck

[u/NDinFL → u/LongDickCallahan]

We’re pretty comfy at #3

[u/theREALbombedrumbum → u/LongDickCallahan]

Only if y'all don't do your job against Georgia

[u/lorindaja → u/LongDickCallahan]

Which is insane given their schedule (or lack thereof)

[u/jedi_master99 → u/theSunking12]

I can’t believe we’ve been ranked #1 as long as we have

[u/and_willy03 → u/jedi_master99]

Hehe

[u/CosmoJones07 → u/alecowg]

My exact thought. Was one of the most fake #1 teams in quite some time.

[u/Neither-Luck-9295 → u/CosmoJones07]

Brother, everyone in Austin knew it as well. We just needed the high.

[u/2th → u/alecowg]

They shouldn't have been #1 after barely beating us. They've shown weakness every single week this season outside of the very obvious cupcakes that they had no chance of losing against.

[u/Global_Advance1150 → u/2th]

Yeah, as much as I would like that Texas loss to be a quality, #1 team loss going into December, I agree they had no business being ranked at #1. They arguably coin flipped us and Ohio State.

[u/Jos3ph → u/Global_Advance1150]

Unfortunately coin flips are 50/50

[u/BeyondLiesTheWub → u/2th]

We’ve shown weakness against cupcakes too lol. We couldn’t even blow out UTSA.

[u/Bubbay → u/alecowg]

The only loss Texas has is to a team that recently beat the #1 ranked team. I expect Texas to rise in the rankings off this quality loss.

[u/DirtThief → u/alecowg]

No I've been saying it all year this is the best team in the country, hands down. We're just better.

(please don't check my comment history)

[u/918okla → u/alecowg]

This was a wake up call for Texas. Feel sorry whoever they play next.

[u/Micho_Riso → u/alecowg]

As a Texas fan, I have to agree.

[u/dkdantastic → u/alecowg]

I'd say somewhere bwtn 8 and 15

[u/Boyilltelluwut → u/alecowg]

Yeah not like the beat Ohio state the previous number 1 and defending natl champ

[u/AmidoBlack → u/Boyilltelluwut]

Ohio State is not the defending natl champ

[u/iam4everalive → u/alecowg]

Thanks for jinxing all of it.

[u/thejayroh → u/alecowg]

We lost so this could happen.
