TAE Top 25
Here it is, folks. The real top 25, not some AP or Coaches Poll bullsh*t. I see more games than probably all those bozos and being the expert I am, I have full right and knowledge to post a true top 25. No playing favorites, no politics.
**You lose, you drop 7 automatic spots. If it works out where the team that just beat you ends up ranked 1 spot behind you, it flip-flops.**

TAE...i'm glad that you made this top 25 stuff...you know why? it shows that there are going to be controversy no matter how you form a top 25. i don't think that there is any way a 5-2 ohio state team should be ranked that high, they lost to two very tough teams yes...one you have ranked at third (could agree with) however the other who is 7-1 you have down at 24. Also, just as a sidenote, i think that if the wind would have blown slightly the other way (figuratively speaking) northwestern would be dominating the big 10 right now...i think they deserve at least 22nd or higher...
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
