[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 252846, member: 265"] Used to be that you could actually get something from the early polls. Then all of a sudden the NCAA put on recruiting limits and all that "progress toward a degree" stuff. Now, the number of teams that you can count on being really good from year to year is vanishingly small and the turnover from early polls is dramatic. The role of sheer bum luck has also increased as the number of consistently good teams has shrunk. This is something we should have learned as a fan base in 2014. Nobody thought we would do better then break even that year and we almost ran the table. This is one reason why I heavily discount the "gloom and doom" we often hear after a Tech loss. I, like most people, think we've already played our two toughest opponents. Do I - or anybody else - know that for certain at this point? Nope. I sure hope the consensus is right because we should do ok this year if it is. [I]But[/I] … maybe not. [/QUOTE]
