Nothing too unexpected there. Only head scratcher I guess would be ND falling to 10. View Quote Not really when you consider their biggest win was a 3 point home victory over currently unranked 5-3 Stanford. Also that was their only win against a power 5 conference team with a current winning record. |

Man I expected you guys to be a lot more pissed off over this.

Well Hotty Toddy! I figured Bama would jump us ... No way. They're improving along the way, but 'Bama started the season playing sloppy and still have a long way to go.

Auburn at #3. How about that. Wouldn't it be fantastic to see 4 teams from the SEC west in the playoff at the end. No that shit would suck. I love football and I watch a ton of games each Saturday but I don't think I'd tune in for conference/subdivision rematch games. It would be just as boring and pointless to have 4 PAC teams in the playoff. What if one year the talking heads all decide to rank Stanford, Oregon, USC, and Washington 1, 2, 3, and 4....then they play each other and the losses (to "top 5" teams dont hurt them much, the wins vs "top 5" teams help them enough to stay top) and then they all get to play again in the final...."national" championship. There would be seething rage from the good people of SECland (or at least dismissal of the farce). Remember the LSU-Alabama rematch? The rest of the country doesn't... I put up with that once and it was just as painful to watch the rematch as the original game to end all games in Tuscaloosa (which actually didn't matter an iota in the scheme of it all). This isn't about which conference is better, I think everybody acknowledges that there are more good teams in the SEC than any other conference and they play well out of conference, often. I'm not buying what the talking heads on ESPN sell every week. Most years teams like Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Wisconsin, Florida State, etc etc will be just as competitive as the teams on the top half of the SEC standings. Hell, every few decades Michigan, Texas and USC will be able to compete too I don't think the NFL would have the viewership it does if only the AFC North got to go to the playoffs each year...the best team from the AFC North should compete against other AFC teams and the best one should play against the best NFC team. Half of the NFL isn't written off just because there is a perception, real or otherwise that the other half is in a league of their own. We had the same discussion last year...what happened to God's conference when they played good teams from other conferences? 0-2 in BCS games. Nobody else was fit to eat the corn from their shit before those games... |

Haven't really followed their season, just jumped out at me with that drop. Well, they didn't really "drop" considering this was the first poll. Personally I find this very encouraging. It shows these people are actually analyzing each team's entire season and ranking them accordingly. Not just looking at the final score with a "what have you done lately" outlook. Also it shows that teams like Notre Dame and Alabama are no longer going to get the benefits of past glory that the other, now meaningless, polls seem to afford them. |

Understood, and we won't ever see eye to eye on this. Unfair or not WRT their ability to change things, IMHO rules are still rules. Follow them or pay the price. Nobody is forcing them to play ball, and there are plenty of others who would be more than happy to take their place and obey the rules they agree to when they sign on. |

Edit: i'll add that while it is theoretically possible to prosecute certain crimes without a cooperative witness, it is rarely done and even more rarely successful. Ignoring things must be a major at FSU. TPD capabilities and relationships with FSU were called into question by the local DA, the NYT, ESPN and just about anybody not wearing Garnet and Gold It's not uncommon for local PD's to have inappropriate close relations with schools and athletic departments so stuff happens all the time. Domestic Assault laws often require the state to press charges even it the victim doesn't wish to press charges. A Facebook post about abuse or photos of abuse would be sufficient evidence to press charges My question were about specifics of FL law on the domestic abuse matters. Monk |
