Seriously? Where would you have ranked Alabama and Georgia?

Georgia should be 7. Bama should be 8 or 9.
They dropped us from 5 to 18.
Bama should drop 7 or 8 spots.

This is exactly the reason why preseason polls should not happen

People blast our schedule but Clemson & Miami both have absolute crap schedules
And two weeks in a row Miami almost beaten by mediocre teams.

Yeah...but Miami won both those games...as opposed to ND losing to a MAC team.

Fair point. Given the close losses, feels like the ball will bounce the wrong way for UM soon.

True, but a few years ago, their schedules would have looked strong
Schedules are made years in advance, and the fortunes of the teams can take an unexpected rise or plunge.
For example, around this time last year, who of us would have ever thought Florida State would collapse so badly, going from a potential playoff team to the bottom of the ACC? I honestly thought that Mike Norvell had his team at a nice level, and that he'd be able to sustain that kind of success.
