Make Your Case for TU as a Top 25 Team - rabidTU2 - 12-20-2016 09:05 PM
1. 10-3 record
2. Only losses to 3 top 25 teams and 2 of those losses were controversial
3. Offensive juggernaut that set NCAA alltime records
4. Played in the strongest non-P5 conference
5. Decisive End of Season Bowl Win

It would be nice to finish in the Top 25. I think this team deserves it as much as anyone else who would be put towards the bottom of those rankings.

Well, the teams ranked at the bottom of the Top 25 are trying to help us.....of the ones I know about, the 25th, 24th and 23rd ranked teams have all lost......so there should be three new teams make the Top 25. It would be nice to make it, but I have a feeling we will end up between 26-30.

Thanks for breaking that down. I was wondering exactly how many/which ones had lost. WVU was 16th in the CFP Poll I think and they also lost.
There's about 6 teams yet to play that are ranked #15 or worse and could potentially lose. Maybe we'll make it. Who knows.

I thought Arkansas was going to help us out yesterday....they were ahead of Virginia Tech(ranked #22) 24-0 and of course proceeded to die in the 2nd half. Tennessee (ranked #21) plays Nebraska who could easily beat them.......for awhile in the Arkansas game, I was thinking all five bottom teams in the Top 25 could end up and lose, which could really help us.
