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 I would prefer that we not be ranked any higher than three going into the SEC Championship.

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 just don’t get it.
