SEC
Projecting the top 25: Ranked team bloodbath means big shakeup coming Sunday
A wild week of football with numerous top ten matchups means this upcoming week’s AP Top 25 will be quite different from the previous week.
At this time we’re projecting six SEC teams to be in the top 25.

- Ohio State def. Rutgers
- Clemson def. Louisville
- Michigan def. Wisconsin
- Houston def. UConn
- Washington def. Stanford
- Texas A&M def. South Carolina
- Tennessee def. Georgia
- Baylor def. Iowa State
- Miami def. Georgia Tech
- Louisville lost to Clemson
- Wisconsin lost to Michigan
- Nebraska def. Illinois
- Stanford lost to Washington
- Florida State lost to UNC
- Ole Miss def. Memphis
- Arkansas def. Alcorn State
- Florida def. Vanderbilt
- Boise State (Late Game)
- Oklahoma def. TCU
- NDSU def. Illinois State
- West Virginia def. Kansas State
- Utah lost to Cal
- Colorado def. Oregon State
- Michigan State lost to Indiana
Dropped out: No. 19 SDSU, No. 21 TCU, No. 22 Texas, No. 25 Georgia
Louisville won’t, or at least shouldn’t, drop that far. Agree with just about all the other projections though. We’ll see tomorrow.
I wouldn’t drop them behind the likes of Baylor and Miami for sure.
I agree they shouldnt BUT think they will. All teams above them are undefeated.
That hasn’t stopped them in the past. I personally think with how close the game was Clemson and Louisville should just switch spots. But that’s just me.
Louisville would destroy Tennessee.
What’s Ole Miss’s record?
A 3-2 that’s more impressive than UT’s 5-0.
Am I missing something or what? I could have sworn Louisville destroyed FSU who beat ole miss but ya know why use logic when you have your impressive 3-2 record?
Love ole miss fans. Too bad we won’t be playing them in Atlanta because they suck.
3-2 is more impressive than 5-0? In what Universe? Difference between Ole Miss and UT, one team chokes, and one team WINS.
Another snobby post by the leading asshat snob from UM.
Only in the minds of little Black Bears, is that true.
Bulldawgrock, you posted that at 3:30 am on a Sunday morning. The f*ck are you doing with your life? No friends, no girlfriend, no life.
Living large, numbnutts.
Riiiiight. Living with your parents, having your mom prepare your every meal and her doing your laundry doesn’t qualify as “living large”, sport.
I live on Ono island. Db. But you probably don’t even know where that is.
No, I dont. Should I? I don’t really spend my time seeking out rat holes.
That figures. You’ve never been on the um campus either have you? It’s far from a rat hole. Google it delumptard.
What an intelligently biting remark. You have really taken this conversation to a mature level. Delumptard? What are you, six? I’m done with you.
p.s. living near a landfill on your Uncle Lou’s pontoon boat doesn’t qualify as living large. Try again, loser.
Wow dude you are soooooo mad. I think you’re the one without a life hahahaha just take your ‘impressive’ 3-2 record, leave, and try not to get so upset over internet comments anymore ok buddy?
Wait….No. 12 FSU loses to unranked UNC and drops only to 15? You must be crazy…..
Also, no way does Lousiville drop off that far, especially after that hard-fought Clemson game.
Lousiville 9, FSU 19
FSU is a better team then UF, FSU 17
FSU drops out
You cant drop FSU out when you rank NDSU in the top 25 and michigan state(out of stupidity) and utah in the top 25.
All 3 teams above would lose to UGA who dropped out and LSU and Auburn.
Pretty sure this rankings was just pushed out with little thought. UNC isnt even ranked…. Yet 2 loss no quality win michigan state is.
Louisville, honestly, deserves to stay in the top 5 after that close loss. Washington’s win was good, but Stanford was overrated (played too many close games this year, eventually they were going to get exposed). TAMU didn’t look astonishing against South Carolina either. I think Louisville should be 5, right in front of Houston, Washington at 7, TAMU at 8, Tennessee at 9, and I guess Miami at 10, although I’m not convinced of them. Florida State in the 20s.
Agree with you but I’d drop FSU and Mich St out. They both have 2 losses with each getting blown out once.
I’d LOVE to see both drop out. I have thought they were overrated for a while now. Michigan State especially. I think FSU’s losses were to actually good teams. MSU has just looked awful. I’d certainly drop out MSU. I think the AP realizes that UNC is still pretty good, and as a result FSU stays, but I think they should drop into the 20s.
A lot of Tennessee fans coming out of their shelters these past 2 weeks lol.
You notice that too?
Not me. Been supporting my Vols through thick and thin. But yes there are some band-wagon jumpers.
Ive been here and im going to stay here no matter what even if i have to eat a plate of crow.
I am with you. I am here no matter what but you see it. Just look at all the new UT fans all the sudden……
It’s disgusting how much respect Wisconsin is getting for essentially no quality win. Unranked Lsu with the wrong qb and coach in a super close game where neither team was really better. A win over a michigan state team that lost to indiana?
Utah was ranked 18th today and lost they will drop out and should. Way better teams.
Still ranking a 2 loss michigan state? Are you serious you lose all credit if you do this. Proven to be absolute GARBAGE.
Wow I just saw a ranked NDSU….. Are you serious? How do you rank them for beating an Iowa team thats bottom tier Big 10… The worst SEC teams could beat this garbage Iowa team that has no1 left from last year and wasn’t even good last year…… Id rather see Maryland ranked here, or at the least put them behind west virginia who has 2 maybe 3 better wins then NDSU….
Why is Florida even ranked? Why would they rise in the polls by beating a mediocre Vandy team, that isn’t ranked.
Why do fans of other teams worry about who would or could beat Tennessee? A win at Texas A&M bumps up into the Top 5 suckers. Tell me how you gone love that?????
From high above the Rocky Top of a certain Eastern Division, alone in first place. Feels good. Darn good.
Why is Tennessee top 10 sure they’re 5-0 but all by a few points vs lesser teams? Yeah they beat fla by 10 but had that last pass of Dobbs gone one way or the other. All I’m saying is Tenn will be a 2 loss team before the end of the year
UT needed a hailmary to beat a team 2 loss Ole Miss ran off the field….The east is so impressive..
Why don’t you cry about it a little more. And Georgia also got a hail mary if you take your troll glasses off for a second. Tennessee is for real, whether yall want to believe it or not.
Real lucky it seems. Scored on a fumble into the end zone against app state and a hail Mary against UGA…….Enjoy it. It will run out
Quick, name Bama’s best victory this year…
That’s right boys & girls, that dominant 3-2 Ole Miss squad.
So yeah, beating Tech, UF, & UGA is at least as impressive as what “number 1” Bama has done thus far in the ‘impressive West’. See you in two weeks, you American elephant.
Really? So which team did Bama need to go into OT with? Hail mary? How impressive was UGA when they played their west opponent?……Florida really put it on candy right? Impressive showing from the SEC east.
A win’s a win, and at the end of the day we are 5-0.
Dude everyone needs to R-E-L-A-X. First of all the AP Iis complete BS. It does not matter. The committee will decide who their teams are with their own logic and they have shown that they don’t take anyone elses opinions/polls into consideration. Secondly can’t we all just be happy FSU lost? Lastly we all know what’s gonna happen, and this is by far the worst part, Alabama is gonna show up with much better athletes than anyone else and they’re gonna win every game they play. Arguing with each other is just wasted energy. (Perspective from a somewhat rational Gator fan)
I agree with you Gator. Even though Bama looked slightly above average yesterday, they played a lot of young guys. Saban will have his team ready for big games. The only way they go down is by getting complacent and their ego cause mistakes, which has happened. The big question right is, is aTm for real? They look mighty impressive so far, but they did the first half of each of the last 3 years, just to fall apart in the back half of their schedule. If they continue to play like they have so far, aTm vs Bama will decide the conference champ. Love my VOLS, but being rational, the inconsistent play and slow first halves will be losses in the next 2 games.
