AP is out - with a lot of changes

What Triad said. Teams in WCBB get rewarded in the rankings based on their records regardless of who they have played. Just look at Baylor last season.

It will interesting to see where WVU is ranked after their games against Baylor and OU this week and then UT twice and Baylor again by the end of January.

You'll notice that the coaches are quite as impressed with KSU.

So I suppose that last year Texas should've been dropped from the rankings because they got blown out by Baylor. That seems to be triad's insinuation, that KSU should be barred from the rankings because they lost by an ample margin to a very ordinary Baylor team in Waco.

The polls are what they are. Make of them what you will.

Actually, I think Triad's point was that beating WVU is not a big deal, as you assert, since they are overrated.

But I could be interpreting that incorrectly.

Triad complained that they were slipped into the top 25 after losing by 30 to Baylor. The poll is what it is. If you beat a higher-ranked team, you tend to get rewarded by moving up. That's pretty consistent. WVU was also moved down for losing to a lower-ranked team. If Triad thinks that losing by 30 to Baylor means that a team shouldn't be rewarded for beating a higher-ranked team, well ...

Really? When did Triad state that complaint? I made the comment about the 30 point loss but I didn't see any comments by Triad "complaining."

Got my posters a bit mixed up there. My bad.

But I did interpret the "overranked #12" comment to imply that KSU didn't deserve to move up in the rankings because of the win.
