FPI is from a computer. I'm not mad about this - we're just 1-0.

 

[roadkill]

Of the six teams that have played a game, we stand alone at the top of E$PN's Efficiency index. ESPN Power Index - Team Efficiencies

We're one game in. We have a lot of recent history to overcome before the pundits, rivals, and computers start giving us respect. Not to mention we need to continue our winning streak.

 

[MonroeJacket]

The only way I think we’re ranked after week one is if we curb stomp state and FSU does the same to BC.

 

[TheStolenT]

This is why rankings shouldn’t exist for several weeks. I know that one is a computer generated one, but it’s always the same story. We beat them on a neutral field with no flukes or craziness. There is no way they should be ranked above us in any polls this week

Get to 4-0 and then worry about it.

This may sound nuts, but going forward this season I'm an FSU fan until we meet them again in the Championship game.

 

[CEB]

This may sound nuts, but going forward this season I'm an FSU fan until we meet them again in the Championship game.

Given my ‘druthers, I’d like to face (and beat) a 12-0 Clemson squad.
But if we actually get there, I don’t much care who lines up across from us.

[stinger78]

Buncha nerds. We beat the top team having stood toe to toe with them the entire game. We end up 7th? Please. None of it matters right now. Keep winning.

 

[CuseJacket]

 

[GTech63]

Get to 4-0 and then worry about it.

Agree!!

 

[BleedGoldNWhite21]

I think you guys are being too pessimistic. We will be ranked unless we lose to GSU

 

[CuseJacket]

 

[stingerman]

All of the predictors are garbage right now. There's no current data upon which to base predictions. We know this. Exhibit A - espn's updated FPI.

FPI is basically for gambling. We were about 50th-60th last week. We moved up 6 or 7 spots, just like FSU moved down 6 or 7.

The only way I think we’re ranked after week one is if we curb stomp state and FSU does the same to BC.

Yep.

Same here, but this shows pre season bias. I’m sure Free Shoes will be ranked the next couple of weeks and we won’t.

We can beat a few teams in that top 25. Ga Tech has a very good football team. Just keep winning baby

 

[bke1984]

Let’s see what we do against Ga State. But assuming we win convincingly, we should either be ranked, AND ranked ahead of FSU or both teams should be unranked. I’m not sure how you could possibly say that they’re better than we are after watching that game. We flat out pushed them around.

But whatever. Just keep playing and keep winning and everything will work out.

Anyone in the top25 won a game yet?
