I stayed up and watched Fresno last night. LOL, they'd finish 4th or 5th in the AAC. If they go to a BCS bowl, they're going to lose by 40.

if yall took care of business vs byu you'd definitely be ranked now. Just gotta keep winning and they'll take care of themselves. Agree fresno is very overrated.

I hear you, but 1 point is the difference between being ranked and not even having a single vote? Something's wrong there.

pretty much. For a nonbcs or tradition power like boise, the difference between being noticed and not noticed is being undefeated. That 1 point would have made you guys undefeated. As it stands you have a loss to an unranked team and appears to have been written off by voting media. Youll have a chance to fix it against top 20 UCF in 2 weeks.

Sorry, but not "pretty much". Look at the Coaches' Poll. Look at the Harris Poll. AP Poll doesn't make sense.

Reading comprehension my man, I said "voting media." Its well known voting media has many, many biases and one of those are against teams from non P5 conferences with a loss. They likely wrote you guys off after the loss to BYU, and whether it is right or not, they will not take notice again until you beat a ranked team. Lucky for you, you'll get a couple of shots coming up against UCF and UL. Stop trying to argue about it, it is what it is and you guys can solve the problem if you just win.

There is no conspiracy to hold houston down.

Honestly, with the way things are trending

If Houston beats either UL or UCF. It only drops that team out of the polls.

Houston beats both UL and UCF. Houston gets in but UL and UCF drop out.

I don't think our schedules are strong enough to boast 3 ranked teams.

It doesn't have to be a conspiracy. More likely just laziness, mixed in with some pettiness towards the AAC.

No, not a conspiracy. I'm not stupid enough to think that, but your argument flies both ways. If what you're saying is true, then why is freakin' Ball State (loss to North Texas) and Duke (losses to Pittsburg and Georgia Tech) even getting votes in the AP Poll? Anyone who would vote for Ball State and not Houston is a lunatic.

thats what ive been saying the whole time in this thread. UH was written off for a poor reason but none the less it was. They won't notice you again utnil they see you at 8-1 with a top 25 win. Just the life of a non P5.

maybe some of the voters for those teams are local to the teams and have more knowledge of them than they do UH. Question you should have are why are houston voters disrespecting you guys so much?

Whats a bit ironic is the game against BYU is what convinced me that we actually are a pretty good team. Before that, I hoped we were good, but I wasn't really sure if we were--or if we were simply a product of our schedule. The last two weeks have indicated to me that we not only pretty good---I think we are improving week to week.

I think we might get ranked, but it will be short lived. I think we are a good team, but I suspect the best we can realistically hope for at this stage of our development is to win out at home and split the two tough roadies. I'd rather win the one vs Louisville than UCF since that at least insures the AAC champ is a team that is staying. Of course anything is posible, but taking off the Red glasses and being optimistically realistic--that's what I'd say is possible with some breaks and continued improvement week to week. Youth has a way of taking a step back from time to time--so I figure that's going to bite us in the butt somewhere along the line.

why dont you research it for yourself? You wondered why UH wasn't ranked, I gave you the most likely reason. What more do you want?

I had researched it for myself. Why don't you learn to keep your mouth shut about something you haven't researched before you start acting so smug?

How many Houston voters are there? A grand total of none.

then that explains perfectly why houston has 0 votes. Did you happen to research where the voters for ball state are from? Houston is out of the minds of voters, as I have said 5x in this thread. So next time why don't you learn how to comprehend what you are reading, and understand not everything someone says on a message board is a shot at UH. No reason for all of the butthurt shown by you in this thread.

Never did I think it was a shot at UH, but throwing around that overused smug douchey coffee icon, and acting as though anyone who believes Houston shouldn't have at least a single vote here is worth being called out.

Local voters are simply not how teams get ranked, and no not all of the Ball State votes are from that area. You honestly don't think it's quite unusual for a MAC team to be less "out of mind" than a team tied for first in a BCS conference?

I didnt say houston shouldn't have a single vote, I was just giving you the reason they don't The other houston poster understood it...not sure why you can't figure it out. AP Voters are lazy and biased.
