Some folks just can't keep up. Heck, there's 2 or 3 people that put App ahead of Coastal and the game just happened a few nights ago.

I blame P5 bias on the internal SBC football ranking pundits!

While I think there is some uncertainty with ODU, I find it hard to believe they are 12 through 14, where a lot of people put them.

Right now, we are 1-2 in non conference games; beating Tx Commerce (**** show in the wind) and losing to VT and Wake.

We are 2-1 in the Sunbelt with a home win over Louisiana (most have top 5 in the conference) and a road win against SoMiss plus a road loss by under a TD to Marshall (who most have relatively high on the list).

The game this weekend vs. App may tell alot but I have trouble putting them as one of the worst 3-4 teams in the conference based on the info we have today. If we get blown out against App, I can understand it. (the gambling public might believe you tho as ODU is around a TD underdog at home)

Yeah I'm kinda waiting to see if stAte can beat anyone besides Southern Miss and if ODU just caught Louisiana on an awful day. The 3 through 10 group is kinda tough to differentiate right now and those two teams just feel easier to leave a notch down from that group until they do a little more to prove otherwise. With ODU I keep catching myself going "well Wake Forest! Buuuuut they did lose, and then there's A&M-Commerce. But Marshall! But still a loss, and then a squeaker against Southern Miss..."

I just need them to pick up another actual win against a team that's not #14 in the conference before I move them out of that bottom four personally... I sure hope that win is not in Harrisonburg, I'm already a little worried about a letdown there if we do beat Marshall and get back in to the top 25.
