Drop the unfair advantage of rankings. We should refer to teams as that 4-1 team with key wins over Clemson and Flroida, with a top 10 loss to Ole Miss on the road. That is just 1 simple idea. Another 4-1 team with quality wins over Geogia and Vanderbilt and a loss to a 3-2 FSU team on the road.

I know the polls are stupid, but sometimes i have to say something. FSU CLEARLY had a trap game on a Friday night vs a sneaky good Virginia team on the road and loss. However they dominated Bama and had a chance to come back and beat Miami. They are 23. Then you have Notre Dame who has lost to two top 10 teams and have beat up on the sisters of the poor, and they are 16. I'm not saying ND shouldn't be a top 20 team, I'm saying FSU should be one also.

OU won't be there for long.
Thus far they have beaten Illinois State, Michigan, Temple, Auburn, and Kent.
They have left Texas, USCe, Ole Miss, Tenn, Bama, Mizzou, and LSU.

They will lose four of their last seven.

It is too damned obvious the polls are not accurate and consistent. We can not get caught up in them for they are used to market games for television ratings. Of course with TV money, the control mechanisms will be used to assure outstanding returns.

It is all about the money now!!

Funny how Alabama got fricking blown out by a team that isn’t even in the top 25, but we lose to a top 10 team by 5 and are lower. Suck a dick.

They are BS worthless collection of vote aggregates decoupled from reality and thus meaningless.
