[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 960439, member: 1640"] Your statement as a hypothetical is on point because it suggests that there is something more going on than just winning. Tech was playing as well as any team in the nation at the end of 2014 yet the preseason poll for 2015 did not even put them in the top 15. The point is not whether they deserved or didn’t deserve a particular ranking. The point is that certain programs are perceived as strong and even if these programs have an average season or even, for them, a down season, the very next season they poll strongly again. They don’t have to prove themselves and are given the benefit of the doubt until they prove they didn’t deserve the ranking, which, witness LSU this year, is hard to do. [/QUOTE]
