Reason #8239 Why I Hate Ole Miss (USA Today rankings)

[SDDawg]

This absolutely kills me. Ole Miss barely wins against a terrible ACC opponent in their bowl game and they move up FOURTEEN spots in the final rankings. We destroy Rice and we end up one spot ahead of them and BEHIND Ole Miss and Bowling Green in the final rankings. THIS is why I hate Ole Miss. Beyond their idiotic fans, everyone believes that they're better than they are and it has gotten BEYOND RIDICULOUS. Insanity.

They beat LSU, who ended up #16. Losing to us on the road isn't all that bad. They ended up with a better record, so they are ranked higher.

Move on.

Yep, we are ranked 47th and EVERYONE we lost to is ranked 18th or higher. And like you said, the team we destroyed by 37 in the bowl game is only one spot behind us. Ridiculous.

I stopped reading the list when they didn't have Auburn at #2..

[DownwardDawg]

That poll is hilarious!!! Haha!! Look at the whole thing. Ridiculous.

[FlabLoser]

47th - see, no need to promote ourselves. It can just happen without us.**

Nope, simply not going to do it. The insanity has to stop. Ole Miss isn't very good. Should they be ranked few spots ahead of us based on more wins and beating LSU? Perhaps. But for them to be ranked 12 spots ahead and for us to be behind Bowling Green AND Marshall on this list is simply a lack of respect. The whole list is ridiculous but Ole Miss really stands out for me on this one.

With everything they had coming back this year and all the hype, they can't be pleased with that ranking. Then losing to us has to crawl under their skin.

[defiantdog]

Hey.... we are the best ranked 7-6 team on the list though. So that's a plus!

These post season polls are a joke.... they have no effect on the next year.... did everyone see how Hud's Louisiana-Lafayette team is ranked better than us lol?

We have the Egg. I'd like more respect, but the bears that have been a thorn in side have basically disappeared.

[state66]

I think its funny that bowling green is ahead of us. I mean I understand they won there pathetic conference but we beat them and I firmly believe that proves were better.

Here's a little of that respect some of y'all are wanting.

I love how McKinney is on everybody's radar for the NFL draft but he can't get a whiff on ANYBODY'S all SEC team. Hell one publication had Kim-de-chie and Bryant on it...I've never seen a school do so LITTLE but yet receive so much in my entire life..

I imagine the fact that we are one of the 5 and Ole Miss only gets an honorable mention will drive the Bearcave apesh_t over the next couple of days. Call ins on radio shows could be entertaining!
