Shows our team that respect for us is fleeting and that they need to beat the living crap out of people every week. Take no prisoners and give no mercy. Rape, pillage, plunder and then get mean and nasty. Fear was always are best friend.

We dropped one spot.

So Wisconsin falls 2 spots for a bad loss to unranked ASU?

I see what thety are doing.
 
Meatchicken lost that game, Akron got screwed…anyway, I expect Miami to settle at about 20 after killing Sav. St. and USF.
If we were SEC we'd climb in the top ten, but alas I digress.
 
Moved up in the coaches poll though, and that's all that matters.

I dont normally say this, but it looks like the coaches poll is more realistic.

If Georgia Tech can take care of business the next two weeks at home, they should be in the high teens - low twenties area of the poll heading into the Miami/GT game on Oct. 5.

Would be a quality win against a ranked conference opponent, which is probably the only chance for that to happen outside of Florida State during the regular season.
 
Looking at the Coastal Conteder's Schedules for the rest of the year I'd rather VT make a run so that they are ranked high when we beat them

Georgia Tech (2-0) Schedule
VT
Miami
BYU
Cuse
UVA
Pitt
Clemson
Alabama A&M
UGA.

Virginia Tech (1-1) Schedule
Marshall
GT
UNC
Pitt
Duke
Boston College
Miami
MD
UVA

North Carolina (1-1) Schedule
GT
ECU
VT
Miami
BC
NCST
UVA
Pitt
ODU
Duke

These are the four teams in the Coastal Race to me. Week 4 will be important because Whoever wins in week 4 is the one I hope continues to win until they play us. So then people can stop the *****ing about the ACC and like Caneshow said it'll be a victory over a nice ranked conference opponent.
 
Texas A&M in the top 10 is my only complaint.. Unless Johnny Football can play some D, I don't care how good of a QB he is.

SEC circular logic. Pollsters refuse to drop SEC teams when they lose to other SEC ranked teams all that far.

Georgia dropped from 5 to 11 after losing to Clemson, South Carolina only dropped from 6 to 13 after losing to Georgia, and Georgia moved right back up to 9th after beating South Carolina. South Carolina beats a mediocre Vandy and the moves back up a spot.

Watching Michigan vs Akron was one of those games where I was like please Akron please but deep down inside I knew Michigan would somehow avoid national embarrassment, I don't really have much against Michigan directly but a coworker of mine is annoying as ****, he swears Michigan is a national contender and after every win he acts to me like they're the best team in the nation

That conference Bias. SEC teams beat each other in the conference and get ranked. Why can't that happen in any other conference? When we beat UNC and GT will we become top 10? It's bull that they only have to win their conference games to make the National Championships while other teams have to win their Conference PLUS beat an SEC team to make it to the dance.

I'm shocked 3 1 loss SEC teams are still in the top 13. Shocked.

Why? based on where those teams started that's about where they should be. UGA lost to the current number 3 ranked team on the road in a close game and Texas A&M lost at home to the reigning national champions in a close game. No team is going to fall that far with those losses
