    Holy fuck this bored is dumb. At least Race has old age as an excuse so I'll let it slide. The rest of you better be joking.

    Dumb is putting a SRS ranking on a turd of a season and calling it chocolate.

    All you off season tough talkers turn into October's excuse makers as you write off the current season and start talking about the next

    If they're in the top 4-5 in srs it probably means that they're in the playoff. Top 25 may not mean much, but top five means that you're Joe Flacco-elite.

    Bingo

    2015 #1 SRS rating - Oklahoma
    2014 #1 SRS rating - Oregon (hi @AZDuck!)
    2013 #1 SRS rating - Florida State
    2012 #1 SRS rating - Alabama
    2011 #1 SRS rating - Alabama

    You have three national champions, one team that finished second, and a playoff team on that list.

    I'll take 60% odds at being NC. Give me the SRS, wiff a bullet.

    we blew so many 1 possession games where a ST TD would of made a difference, that's my answer.
    Death row and the specialness of Gaskin would keep us in every game whether it's Utah Southern or Alabama. Plus a long punt return/ Kickoff TD changes momentum.

    And I may be wrong, but don't wins/losses affect SRS?

    Alabama is #1 not Oklahoma. Alabama was #1 pretty much the entire year.

    OU was #1 before the playoff, I guess there's an updated version somewhere?

    I've seen that before and although it looks really close to one at the link below, its different. Utah was ahead of UW before the playoff. That also has Oregon 30th when they were actually 18th before their loss.

    I saw OU at #1, Bama #2.

    SRS really shouldn't have been in this poll, because of course being #1 means you're 13-0 or 12-1. Of the others I'd probably go for defense.
