As far as the computers go, this is 100% correct.

Well then, why does the BCS ranking only count 4 computers? Nobody really knows how the standings are computed, but I think that you can take out the lowest ranking teams (maybe only 1 game taken off) because there are always outliers. Plus, when you play multiple top 25 teams week in and week out, when you're playing only 12-13 games it can really mess up the average.

It's like Boise State playing middle of the pack opponents every year, all year, while teams like Alabama plays top tier opponents with one I-AA team and they can still manage to rank higher than an undefeated Boise with one loss on the books.
