still 0 votes in the AP poll:

And yet, Arkansas is getting 15 votes in the AP despite having the same record (2-2) against weaker competition. Their 2 wins were against Ole Miss (1-4) and MS State (1-3), while our wins were against LSU (2-2) and Kentucky (2-3) who had just stomped Tennessee in Knoxville.

We're ranked in the Top 50 of Sagarin... Arkansas is not.

We have a Top 10 strength-of-schedule... Arkansas does not.

We have a multi-game winning streak... Arkansas does not.

There's absolutely no basis for them to be ahead of us in the AP poll. Perhaps the media still thinks Odom is our coach and therefore haven't taken us seriously yet.

Beating Florida this weekend would definitely get some attention — and would put us in 2nd place of the East.
