Says Tennessee could be the #1 team in the country:

Ranks us #4

:blobthonkang::thonk3D:

[SageBow]

Top 8 seem pretty solidified. I like Illinois, Bundy likes Wake, Ezaco likes Tulane, but everyone else is locked in

[Vivid]

Texas state is criminally low. Also Ik we just lost but you really not going to rank BAYLOR again….

[Rocketcan]

Rigged

[Vivid]

Fake news!

[Ezaco]

Hey my gut and the formula don't always align. Not my fault, even if I made both.

[Ezaco]

Lablor?

[Ezaco]

My formula always has Texas State really low. Which is funny since I used their placement on the Top 25 to validate how close my formula was when I initially made it. It's disrespected them since.
