Coaches lovin' dem some Auburn...jump Boise.

USC is definitely better than The Black Bears.  But what I'm not understanding is that Auburn moved up to #2 in the Coaches Poll and are still #1 in the 'puters, but dropped a spot.  Sucks, 'cause I was loving the attention that being #1 brought.  Oh well...I guess the pressure's off and now this team can focus on regaining that top spot by winning out.  I wouldn't be surprised to see TCU get some major love if they're able to beat the shit outta Utah @ Utah.

Oregon jumped us because their SOS in the computers jumped way up from 8th to 3rd I think in the computer polls.

Okay first, the Corches poll needs to be abolished immediately.  This is something that should never have existed in the first place.  Do I say that because of any slight against Auburn?  Nope.  It's because every single interview I've ever heard with ANY Corch across America...not just this year....ANY year, brings the exact same response.  "I don't pay attention to the polls or what everybody else is doing. I only have time to think about the next team on our schedule." 

And these guys are allowed to vote?  Didn't Spurrier admit to having someone vote for him last year because he doesn't have time to look at it? 

Also, the argument is the strength of schedule.  We get punished because Oregon played a pretty good USC team and our opponent lost to JSU and Vandy earlier.  Well, the #3 Horny Toads play the #5 Youthful Defendants this week.  Will we see too much love for the underdogs?  Something tells me the winner of that game jumps Auburn.

Logic would dictate that we at least end up #2 this year. The AP's love fest with the non-AQ's defies logic, however, which scares me.

I absolutely think the winner of TCU/Utah jumps us this week. No matter who wins, they're beating a "colossal top 5 team." That will turbo boost their standing in the polls. And if the winner of that game doesn't squeeze into the #2 spot, Boise may. It won't make sense, but the voters obviously could give a shit about SOS.

And let's say bammer drops the ball against LSU or MSU. Despite what bammers around here may believe, that is not beyond the realm of possibilities. If that happens, bammer will have to drop like a rock with 2 losses. Easily out of the top 10, possibly out of the top 20. Suddenly our Iron Bowl win is not that impressive.

I'm getting real nervous about the 2004 Déjà vu.

Then you've apparently bought in to the "Auburn gets no national respect" bullshit the bammers have peddled for years about Auburn, and because of such, you've completely lost touch with reality on this issue.
