We are not losingWe will be ranked 24-25 so that way Florida lost to a "ranked team on a neutral site"
I agree, only because it is the opening game of the season they are going to put us in there just because it would be a ratings boost to see a "Top 25" match up. We haven't earned it, but I'll take it none the less.Who cares if we will be ranked or not? Just beat the f'ucking turds!
With that being said, I believe the "powers that be" would like for the "150 years celebration" kickoff game to a match up amongst ranked opponents. It just looks better for promoting/marketing/PR purposes.
Could not agree more! Look, even with our week schedule, since the Canes are such a media draw, if we've earned the kind of ranking to put us into a position to have a great and impactful post season, our ranking will take care of itself. I'd prefer to be unranked, beat the lizards and then frog walk our way up the polls.The AP poll releases today at noon, what do you guys think we will be ranked? I hope that we aren't.
Inside top 20... just so ESPN can hype up the weekend matchup.
