    Jiffy,
    ...but they beat SEC stalwart Auburn....therefore, as the logic goes, they have to be good! Right?! :wink:

    I think they got there by default. Everybody in front of them lost.

    I would say that a team that is unbeaten and has beaten both W. Virginia and Auburn is a top 25 team.

    But at number 2, that was by default.

    Ditto on Bill's post. That's the rationale I would use.

    LOL, well, they were undefeated against the NCAA's #12 toughest schedule ... which probably says a lot more than being undefeated versus the #72 schedule ..... or the #92 schedule ..... or the #84 schedule ..... or the #100 schedule ...... or the #119 schedule.
