AP understood better what happened. Why are we #27 in the coaches poll?
because we lost… the coaches don’t care if it was a quality opponent or not… we simply loss the game…
The good news is that they did not drop as far as we could have been dump (like they usually do).
It really doesn’t seem fair. With a #19 team being ahead the entire game except for the last 3,5 minutes vs a #10 team and lose that game by only 1 point, there is no way possible that we should have dropped 6 points. UCLA only went up 1 point.
It the worst, I think that UCLA should have gone up one point and we should have dropped by 2 points. (Not 6).
I think our team did a great job vs. the #10 team in the Nation.
If we go 11-1 we still have a chance at a play off bowl.
IOf we don’t let down, that is a very possible outcome from the higher quality of game playing and coaching that we have all witnessed this 2015 season.
That’s the coaches poll. The AP we only dropped 2 to #22.
The key is a win a Michigan…I watched the Missouri-UConn game and they were very beatable.
Fish,
By now, we all know what happened in Michigan and we are very lucky to even be mentioned in the top 49.
In Bronco’s own words.
" I did not have our team prepared to play Michigan. Harbough did have his team prepared to play us." Today, Michigan was the better team.
My only question is: WHY ???
This is the only game of the four that we were favored to win. Why did our HC not have us prepared?
