Goes to show you how jacked up polls are. No way should Va.Tech be ahead of GT at this point. That's no disrespect to the Hokies because it was dumb earlier in the year when USC was ranked higher then Oregon for a spell. If the BCS has Va.Tech ahead of GT then that will be yet another example of the stupidity that is the BCS. When you factor in GT's better overall record and the little thing called head to head each new week I find even more reason to believe college football is ran and voted on by morons.Sava700 wrote:VATech is now #11 and one spot ahead of GT... I'm sure GT will drop a few more spots after Clemson hands them another loss.
Well I do agree that the polls are flawed..we both know that. GT did win that game vs VT which didn't prove they were the better team over all...just got the win that day. Georgia just came out and showed people how bad of a team GT is when they can't run that Option Offense they have. Getting beat by the soon to be #1 team in the country really doesn't hurt VT at all...only helps them, in this case GT got nailed by a non ranked Georgia team that didn't show how good they were till last night.Roody wrote:Goes to show you how jacked up polls are.

Although I know you dislike GT from your past remarks I know you have condemned similiar issues so I can only imagine you are going to be consistent in speaking out regarding the stupidity of this also.
So do you or don't you agree that GT should be ranked higher then VaTech? I can't tell your viewpoint from this answer.Sava700 wrote:Well I do agree that the polls are flawed..we both know that.

As I said earlier, yeah the BCS is flawed in many ways and we both know that. It will be interesting to see how the numbers and bowl games fall towards those teams like Boise St when the dust settles.
Well the BCS isn't being displayed yet..but I think GT is 10th on it and VT is 12th... the AP has VT 11th and GT12th.....Roody wrote:So do you or don't you agree that GT should be ranked higher then VaTech? I can't tell your viewpoint from this answer.
I get that you think VT is better, but you still aren't answering the question on whether or not you think VT should be ranked higher then GT. I'm asking your view not what the polls say.Sava700 wrote:Well the BCS isn't being displayed yet..but I think GT is 10th on it and VT is 12th... the AP has VT 11th and GT12th.....
I still think the BCS is flawed either way... I don't think GT is a better team than VT... not one bit, not after watching both games yesterday and others throughout the season for both.
yeah I just said that... I saw the polls just now. And I just did answer your question in the last post.Roody wrote:I get that you think VT is better, but you still aren't answering the question on whether or not you think VT should be ranked higher then GT.

Btw, the BCS polls just came out and GT is ranked higher. They are at 10 and VT at 12.
No actually you didn't. You told me what the polls stated. You didn't state whether you think GT should be lower in the polls then VT. So with that in mind just tell us what you think. Yes or no that GT should be higher in YOUR view.Sava700 wrote:yeah I just said that... I saw the polls just now. And I just did answer your question in the last post.
YES, VT should be one spot higher than GT in the BCS polls as of this week.Roody wrote:No actually you didn't. You told me what the polls stated.

Wow...never took you for a person to believe that a team with a worse record deserves to be ranked over a team with a higher one. Speaking of BCS conferences of course.Sava700 wrote:YES, VT should be one spot higher than GT in the BCS polls as of this week.
I think the AP polls got it right...the BCS and its computers got it wrong once again.
I would have to say your right in thinking I wouldn't think that..but take 1loss from VT and thats the Alabama game... I'll take getting beat by the soon to be #1 team in the country over a non ranked Georgia team any day....Roody wrote:Wow...never took you for a person to believe that a team with a worse record deserves to be ranked over a team with a higher one.

Quite frankly Sava I always knew you were a homer who couldn't seperate his team from his views, but this is the first time you actually confirmed it with your own remarks.Sava700 wrote:

Wisely they know what all Pac 10 fans know. USC is set to go to the Holiday Bowl as they get the second pick after the Rose.New Bowl Predictions are in.. time to move on to another thread.

What amazes me Roody, is that you don't see anything beyond wins and loses... you mean to tell me a team losing to the soon to be #1 team in the country means less than losing to a non ranked ...a non ranked team that at the highest point of the season was ranked 13th and fell off the top 25 in 3 weeks?Roody wrote:Quite frankly Sava I always knew you were a homer who couldn't seperate his team from his views, but this is the first time you actually confirmed it with your own remarks.
If records were equal then of course I would give the nod to Va.Tech assuming that they actually beat GT, but they didn't making your support for the Hokies the very definition of homerism. Not only does VT not have as good a record as GT, but they also lost to them so you have nothing other then speculation to make your argument. By contrast GT has a better record and a win against VT to make theirs.Sava700 wrote:What amazes me Roody, is that you don't see anything beyond wins and loses... you mean to tell me a team losing to the soon to be #1 team in the country means less than losing to a non ranked ...a non ranked team that at the highest point of the season was ranked 13th and fell off the top 25 in 3 weeks?
I don't believe it and I doubt anyone else would either.I may defend VT, but I'm not saying I think VT should be ranked higher than GT cause of that reason or because I'm a fan.... believe it or not but that's the truth.
Well Its the truth... and I don't care if you or anyone else believes it.Roody wrote:

Which is why you keep taking the time to insist you don't care. Still doesn't change the fact you are a homer and a bigtime one at that.Sava700 wrote:Well Its the truth... and I don't care if you or anyone else believes it.
Nope not a fact as I'm not... I love my team, pull for my team, but you asked a question and I gave you the truth and a reason why...a valid one at that.Roody wrote:Which is why you keep taking the time to insist you don't care.

Bull it's valid. You stated that you think a team who lost a head to head matchup against another team and who has a worse record then the team they lost to is still better then the team that beat them. You are a HOMER Sava. Feel free to keep denying it and I will continue to point out how much you are.Sava700 wrote:Nope not a fact as I'm not...
