I guess a 30 pt win over OSU meant something to the voters. I figured they drop to around 10 after that 1-3 debacle.

I think the Bracket Reveal probably factored in for some voters. And to be fair, we didn't go 1-3 last week. We went 1-1.

Didn't say we went 1-3 last week. But, prior to beating OSU yesterday, we were 1-3 over the last 4 including losing 2 in a row. Not a good look for the No1 team in the country.

Your comment was about the poll rankings. Poll rankings go week to week.

So, you don't think poll voters take in cumulative effects of wins losses? Maybe there don't, but I was expecting a team that had lost 3 out of 4 before hammering a bottom feeder to drop more than 4 spots. Like I said, respect.

Dropped 2 places from 3 to 5

Not typically, and thus it's why polls are stupid for all intents and purposes.

And as I said, being a #1 in the reveal after losing 3 of 4 likely had a lot to do with voters' heads.
