    Where should Memphis be ranked after this weekend?

    Memphis just beat Ole Miss 37-24.
    Ole Miss beat Alabama and lost to Florida.

    Memphis is undefeated so far, yet was unranked before playing Ole Miss.
    So where should Memphis be ranked?

    Memphis will be top ranked in both the AP and Coaches polls.
    Tigers will leap frog over the 26 teams ranked ahead of them in the AP poll garnering 1500 points getting each and every #1 vote.
    Said one unnamed voter "how could I have been so blind, I now see the light, 2015 Memphis Tigers are the best NCAA football team since the 1972 Johnny Rodgers led Nebraska Cornhuskers"

    There's so much parity in college football now it's why you can't handicap games anymore

    Around #17. After 13 straight wins, the latest being against a ranked SEC team, they're deserving.

    I vote #3 in the country, more than likely going to be in the college football playoff. Darkhorse team to win it

    Not worth ranking. Weak schedule. Maybe 27th on a good day.

    It's hard to tell, Ole Miss, like many SEC teams, started about 10 spots higher than they should have. It's like last year, too many pretenders in that conference overrated. I would say #21.

    Rankng wise, too high for me, but rankings mean squat its all about ratings, I still think their defense sucks and though they put up points their offense isnt that great to me, jmo.

    Considering they have Alabama at #8, I think 18th is too high. SHould probably be Alabama #10 and Memphis #13, or something like that

    Paxton Lynch is the best quarterback in the country. The defensive adjustments made against Ole Miss prove that this is an elite coaching staff. Memphis is a top 10 team. Rankings be damned. But y'all will see.

    He's ok. Watch Tulsa give Memphis all they can handle might be an upset..

    paxton lynch will be the first qb drafted, if that's who you're talking about being average. as far as the next game, it is a road game in a classic letdown spot. they'll win the game though maybe not as impressively as it should be. will not be an outright upset though, i guarantee that.

    I changed my post, coincidentally I was actually watching a profile of Lynch on ESPN as I was typing lol. I just remember that South Florida game and Cincy game, both close games, maybe something about him doesnt overly wow me, he's a strong thrower though, maybe I should be wowed somewhat. They have some tough games late in the season, I really wanna watch the Temple game and see how he does against that defense.

    First qb drafted? Thats kinda stretchy isnt it? Especially if he comes out this year and I dont even know who all maybe coming out, just doesnt feel like a 1st qb off the board to me, but who knows, Im sure scouts love his size and arm though.
