We come in just barely behind Georgia, 1196 to 1180. Doesn't really matter anyways.

Yep. Once the CFP poll comes out Tuesday and every week thereafter until early December, the AP and Coaches' polls mean nothing.

UGA passing us is a freakin' joke, but like others said, it's w/e, a lot of FB to be played.

Georgia was barely behind us and they just beat a Top 10 team. I am not surprised they jumped us.

This season it looks like all the Pac-12 teams have 2 Byes. Interestingly, USC's second one is after their last game on Nov. 23. Other teams do play on the 30th, so it is a bye. It would give the Trojans a week off before the conference championship game, were they to win the South.

There’s an extra week this season based on how the calendar laid out. Everyone gets two bye weeks. It’s great for the broadcasters who are monetizing an extra week of games.

Bye is a tougher game than the cupcakes the SeC schedules late in the year.

We’ve never beaten bye. Facing them twice in a season is daunting.

I've heard BYE is the only multi-decade undefeated program in NCAA history.

The ducks worked on running the ball more effectively and it seemed to work more after the bye. What does Oregon work on this week. Maybe the penalties.. or keeping their cool. Celebrating off the field and not on it. Act like been there before and not a big deal.

Obviously you don't want 150 yards in penalties, but I think the passion and physicality we played with helped us much more than it hurt in the last game.

It helps when every single team in the SEC is ranked so every time they lose they can just say, "Hey, we lost to a ranked team". It assures the SEC is ALWAYS in the top 10
