    I just don’t get it. I know the rankings don’t mean anything really until after the SEC Championship game — but we got more first place votes than Texas. We beat a ranked opponent on Saturday (ranked no. 9 — a top ten opponent) and we get no respect. Did the UcheaT game really do us in that bad? Texas beat up on an unranked UCF team — give me a break ….

    I would prefer that we not be ranked any higher than three going into the SEC Championship. We were ranked one last year and for some reason, I think it makes a mental difference to the players, knowing they have to prove themselves up until the final game.

    Co-Saban would say that nothing matters…not rankings, not gimmick jerseys, not anything except focus and execution. Still, I want us to be third going into SEC Championship, win that one, go play Texas as the second ranked team, beat them and END THE YEAR #1

    Quit bitching about our ranking, if we take care of our business we are in. Only wanna be metrosexuals care about a bullshit national perception.
