They got outgained 426-104, and lost 24-3. They're now up 27-7 at halftime.

To be fair, that was an awful comparison.

Memphis two losses are to undefeated UCLA (7 point loss) and undefeated Ole Miss (7-3 going into the 4th). They suck!

I forgot LSU would be out after losing this one. Wisky and Stanford also out after their 2nd loss. Regardless Mulva, my point is the same. Either OU or A&M will still be in the top 10.

Wasn't arguing with any part of the point but LSU.

1. Florida State
2. Auburn
3. Baylor
4. Notre Dame
5. UCLA
6. Mississippi
7. Mississippi State
8. Michigan State
9. Alabama

Either A&M or Oklahoma is going to occupy that 10th spot, unless Georgia, LSU or USC jumps back into the top 10, which I don't see (especially Georgia or USC, as their losses aren't that great).

tcu

That's 14 who should be ranked above an A&M team who looked like dog shit today.

This "going into the 4th thing" could get ugly

Hoping Marshall cracks the top 25 this week but maybe not until next week. Probably be around 27.

Why would Ohio State, with a 14-point loss at home to a 2-loss team, be ranked over A&M, with a 17-point loss on the road to a top 5 team? Ohio State's 4 wins also have a combined 15 losses...

Honestly, they should. They have destroyed everyone. Their chances to get a "BCS" bowl game is going to hinge on them getting ranked soon.

I don't think they will...I'd guess A&M about 2 spots ahead.

Stop using logic and reason in your posts. Heads may explode.

And the teams above them getting 2nd and 3rd losses.

Marshall's schedule sucks but they are legit power mid major.

Just replaced their starting quarter back a couple weeks before and a new offensive line. Now they are improving every week and hopefully will continue to do so. OSU has a shot since their loss was so early that they could redeem themselves as long as they continue to get better and show they aren't the same team.

When there will be a bunch of 1 loss or 2 loss teams, if OSU can run the table it's easy to forgive that loss just because of the circumstances.

At least that could be the argument later on.

Marshall's chances of getting a BCS bowl have everything to do with ECU. Right now they are in over Marshall. Marshall is not going to pass them with both going undefeated.

Marshall is not going to have any problem with ECU going undefeated.
