Nobody is arguing about what you said.  People are just pointing out that you could be a touch more diplomatic in how you say it.  Here, try this instead.

"I know that Ole Miss is only 2-2, but that #16 ranking is completely deserved; their two losses are against Alabama and Florida State, the #1 and #12 ranked teams, respectively, and they just dismantled Georgia (now #25).  Given the strength of the schedule, and how well they played (remember, they led Alabama at halftime and only lost by 5 points), it is entirely reasonable to have them ranked despite their two losses."

I think if you make your case without insinuating that folks who don't agree with you are "stupid", you won't get attitude in return.  But I'm not an admin here, so feel free to ignore what I say.
