Why polls don't make sense....

We lose at the time to Wisconsin, i thought unranked, and fall over 17 spots. However, that team is now #11 in the country. Yes, Ohio State loses to an unranked Penn State team and fall 4 spots? Really...not that it matters, just curious

Goes, again, into the truth that pre-season polls should be abolished. They create a bias about teams before they step foot on the field. If we had lost at No. 8 Wisconsin this past weekend, our drop would have been minimal.

I think they should do it with an electoral college system, that would reduce the large school/large media market bias that schools such as Ohio st enjoy

The politics of College football. It turns people off when there are inconsistencies.

Why do you think the mulligan game happened? Why do you think the playoff got implemented? Why are they always people complaining about getting short-changed by their conference?
Bias is all over college, and that's why people watch the pros

Isn't Fla. St in the top 15 and they lost by 43 points to Louisville and also have 2 loses.

The good news is, these polls don't matter. The CFB Playoff committee doesn't really follow what the current polls look like.

And Penn St still isn't ranked st 5-2. 
It's a joke. At least the 2 teams LSU lost to are looking good and keep seeing their stick rising.
