Not ranking @SouthAlabamaFB or @TroyTrojansFB this week shows that the AP voters don’t watch College Football. Those 2 programs are more than deserving of a Top 25 ranking based on their resumes.

Noise becoming louder ie. Huff to Southern Miss. Leaving for a 1-11 team after playing/potentially winning a league title is wild stuff!.
Marshall head coach Charles Huff has emerged as the top candidate to land the Southern Miss job, sources tell @On3sports. He's 31-20 in four seasons with the Thundering Herd and will play for the Sun Belt title on Saturday.

Regional Rivalries have historically been what’s made College Football so special!. The sport is moving away from that in the never-ending pursuit of money. I’d like to see the Sun Belt keep divisions & continue leaning into what’s made the sport special!.
