My guys got no credit for beating Miami 35-3 in the bowl game last year, so why should Florida get credit for squeaking by Miami this year?


Miami sucks.

Miami sucks.
I mean, UW was preseason top-20. that might not happen without 35-3.

Per S&P, they finished with 8 of top 12 last year (those numbers really liked Missouri), and frankly, there’s not been all that much proving done just yet.

So no credit given to wins over Oregon or Miami.  Cool. 
let's see where the Ducks and Canes finish
neither are impressive so far

Miami sucks.
Maybe don't get blown out by Minnesota? 

I was talking about 2019.  Miami may very well suck.  Who is ranked behind Florida (one of the 'meh' top 10 teams from the SEC) with a better win?  Let's see how far down the rankings you have to go...
Rk - Tm...Opponents
10 - UM...MTSU, Army (OT)
11 - Utah...BYU, NIU
12 - Texas...LA Tech
Where are the better wins?
13 - Penn St...Idaho, Buffalo
14 - Wisconsin...USF, CMU
Buncha directional schools.
15 - Oregon...Nevada
16 - A&M...Texas St.
17 - UCF...FAMU, FAU
18 - MSU...Tulsa, WMU
I'm tired of looking now.  Where are the better resumes?  If Miami sucks, how do you label this list of opponents/victories?!?

Very fair.  But see above....what better wins are out there to replace Auburn and Florida in the top 10?!?
