Auburn did not make it. This is a good sign! 🦅🐅

Another year, another time A&M gets ranked low to boost SEC schedules.

At least WVU receiving votes tho! Neal gonna take us to the B12 championship game (he's gonna go 7-5 and we're gonna flame out after Pitt)

Preseason ranking are based on returning players and recruiting class. A&M always has a good recruiting class they just never manage to do anything with them.

[-] CMLVI@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah, but at a certain point, that needs to be taken into account. Not that pre-season ranks necessarily matter, but it does play into what assumptions are made of other teams. This will presumably turn into a top 20 win for a conference opponent just based on "they had good recruiting".

Sigh. Go to the fucking natty, get left off the list. I get that Washington has had massive turnover, but that's still bullshit in my brain.

They also lost handily to a team from their new conference.

[-] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

Alright I guess it's time to get off my offseason ass and put together our preseason poll...

[-] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 weeks ago

How many won't be top 25 at the end if the season? I'd say around 8.

[-] hactar42@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

Dang UTSA getting votes and Texas Tech getting nothing feels like I'm in a simulation

[-] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 2 points 4 weeks ago

Maybe they should have made a better offer to lure Traylor away from San Antonio. I did think Joey McGuire would have similar success when they went with him, but that hasn't materialized on the field yet.

As for this season, I do expect UTSA to slip a little with Harris gone, and there's room for Tech to climb (but the Big XII is so stacked there's not much room)
