We have a shot to get Troy ranked in the top 25 following the bowl season. Let’s spread the word.
It’s not a official site but go vote in this twitter poll for Troy. Could run it up and tag some AP writers in it.

The entire process is rigged, unless you are one of the chosen group of 5 team conferences you are screwed.

It will take a few breaks BUT one glaring thing will tick me off if the following happens. Say Memphis loses and Boise and LSU win .....then FAU wins they will finish 11-3 and they will have loses to Wisconsin 31-17 and they pretty good and probably this year maybe even a tad better than LSU and if we even grant that WE WON!! And then they lost to Buffalo and we to USA so bit of a wash and then they lose to Navy and they could finish under .500 so let me see we did lose to Boise but wait...oh that's right they are conference champs and ranked....and so We both B**** slapped UNT so if we finish behind them I will puke....then there is SDSU and Army....nice run guys but beating Stanford is not bad but sort of a push...Army nice run for them but 3 losses should not put them ahead of us....we will end close if Memphis , Toledo, NC st, lose and the voters don't get man crushes on Lane Kissassn and no disrespect to Army because if they beat us out it may not be right but would consider it right out of respect for those guys and their life's commitment to allowing me to type stuff like this...including thinking Kiffin sucks! Guarantee he will screw up at next stop. He just has jerk market cornered.

One of the problems we could have is that we played in the very first of 40 bowl games.....it would be easy for us to slip between the cracks.

Could run it up and tag some AP writers in it. I've stayed away from the #RankTroy movement this season until the season was over. Yesterday I tweeted Kirk Herbstreit, not expecting an answer. Here is what I got within 5 minutes:

With WSU losing the way the did along with a loss from VT our chances have improved. We really need NC State and NW to lose today. If this happens I think we are all over the 25 spot! Then we could use a little help from SC in beating Michigan to avoid them possibly jumping over us in the final poll. Getting my popcorn ready!

They lost to Navy, and that is not equivalent to losing to Boise. They also lost to Buffalo which is pretty equivalent to losing to USA for us. They lost to Wisconsin who is pretty good. They have NO big victories over a league that is going to go around 4-5 in their bowl games. OH YEAH we if LSU wins will have a victory over around a number 12-13 LSU team on THEIR FIELD. I am not saying that FAU is not pretty good this year but they do NOT NOT NOT have our resume. So even if not in the top 25 as long as we are ahead of them I will consider it ok........and yes go Iowa State and whomever is playing NWestern.
I do not like green eggs and ham, NOR KIFFIN (even more then I dislike Satan at Alabama)

Too many lower ranked teams winning. Yeah but you also have a 5 loss Stanford and a 4 loss USC. If I was a voter, it would be 3 strikes and you are out. There would be zero teams in the top 25 with 3+ losses. UCF should be #1 and in the playoff. And I hate UCF.

Really do need to pull for good LSU showing and hope pollsters really look at troll like FAU prior to rankings.

Well LSU did not help and I doubt they rank us ahead of them...but they should😊 And I am going to vomit if FAU is ahead of us and gets in, but such as life and congrats to UCF who beat a team that beat two of the teams in the playoff?

I don’t see how you could legitimately put fau ahead of us. The cusa bowl record should completely eliminate any chance of that.

The cusa bowl record should completely eliminate any chance of that I fear in the simple, elitist minds of some voters, we will be overlooked because we have an on campus enrollment of 8500ish in Troy, AL. To their thinking, there's no way a quality team could emerge from such.

I know that, you know that, and there are many who will vote in the final CFB rankings who know that. Many of those, however, will refuse to acknowledge that and will, therefore, because of their elitist attitudes, not place us in the Top 25. I just hope there aren't enough of those to keep us out in the end.
