No. Just..no. It doesn't invalidate the rest of the argument, but this is just complete nonsense. Just because Mississippi State, Florida, and Auburn were ranked at the time does not make them "Ranked teams" in any meaningful judgment of accomplishment at the end of the season. That is utter absurdity. Stop it. I agree with this. If it turns out that Miss St, Florida, and Auburn just weren't that good, then they shouldn't be counted as wins over ranked teams.
