You mean out of the remaining games or for SBC games only?

Cincinnati winning the national title

Cincy winning the NATTY is one, but for the conference to finish on a high note, I think Louisiana needs to finish as high as possible. That would be greatly affected by what I mapped out early last week.

I would say 10 is falling our way . . .

I’m thinking that four is the magic number. Not ranked 4, instead four losses. Anyone in the top 10-20 can not get bumped until four losses.

The update image is what my prediction of final AP rankings will be and why.

The only one I’m not sure of that kinda scares me is Wake Forest. Originally going against Texas A&M. Now they are against 5-7 Rutgers. Doesn’t bode well for knocking them back.

Slight change. Oregon moves back to #19 after losing to OU. Kentucky is at #18 after beating Iowa. Arkansas sits at #20. Move everyone a spot back from there. UTSA is out of the rankings

As far as our ranking goes, I hope we are higher than lower, but again, whether we are 13 or 18, I won't care that much. At this point we did everything we set out to do, with the exception of beating Texas. All goals reached, check. Would I like to be higher, yes, do I care if we are 4 or 5 spots lower, I guess so, but it aint gonna mean a hill of beans in recruiting, or exposure or anything else. CMD will say, come play for our back to back Nationally ranked Cajuns. We finished ranked #...... and a recruit is not going to sign because we were 12 rather than 16. The difference of where we are and where we will be in going to be somewhat insignificant, unless we finish in the Top 10 and that is highly unlikely to happen.

Our ranking will definitely mean something to the P5 players in the portal. Hoping we able to pick a 2-3 DL.
