Well deserved, IMO. Offense will hit you in the mouth with Ingram and the defense smothers. McCelroy is putting together a solid season. I think they've had a better season than UF to this point.

Should be an interesting and great SEC Championship game.

I see they (AP) still could not bring themselves to drop OK out of the Top 25 at 3-3.


I haven't looked at who they should be in front of, but they're a top 25 team. they lost to 2 top 10 teams and another top 20. With all their injuries, played a hell of a game against Texas yesterday. Who do you think would be favored against #18 on neutral turf?

They barely lost to Texas without Sam Bradford. They shouldn't have dropped much.

Good points. I just hate polls. I just think most 3-3 teams would be out of the top 25 at this point. tOSU would be, and I am sure many would have them out at 5-2 if they could.

Does an injured Sam Bradford rate higher or lower in poll voting than an injured (emotionally?/progression-wise?) Pryor?

there were 5 or 6 that didn't vote Ohio State in the AP poll at all.

Honestly I think being 18 in the AP and 17 in the coaches poll is beyond generous right now.
