AP logic continues to confuse me.
Auburn has been dropped eight spots to 26th in the latest AP top 25 rankings, sitting just outside the poll behind Texas, who lost in humiliating fashion to an Oklahoma team that has pieced together struggle win after struggle win this season. College football is a mess. A fun mess, but a mess.
Auburn is 4-2, 1-1 in the SEC after their loss. Other teams besides Texas that don’t deserve to be in over Auburn (who has losses to the No. 1 and No. 7 teams in the nation) include San Diego State, SMU, and Coastal Carolina (Yes, I said it).
Auburn looks to bounce back in a tough road environment against No. 17 Arkansas next Saturday. Kickoff is at 11 a.m. central time on CBS.
