Aggies dominating Auburn. ODU turning around and beating Georgia Southern. ODU owns a win over APP State.I'm hopeful, but won't be surprised if we stay out. We'll never be the "darlings"....and I'm okay with that since the disrespect seems to motivate this team some. Nevertheless, I won't be surprised to see Tulane move up (as they did after their squeaker last weak) and SMU move in ahead of us. As for the AP/Coaches polls, probably don't expect much respect there either. That preseason SOS still haunts us even though as the season has progressed, it's quite clear the assumptions with some of our opponents "strength" has been proven wrong. We have wins over a team that beat the brakes off of an SEC team, a team that beat an ACC team, and another team who went toe-to-toe with yet another SEC team and was predicted to be a bottom dweller (JaxSt). So as far as SOS goes as primary excuse now.....at this point, that's just them slapping their cake holes looking for some reason NOT to give us any respect/credit.
