But people judge the goodness of computer formulas on the basis of whether or not their results match the opinion polls though. That is why the BCS formulas have been subjected to repeated adjustment from year to year.

That's why you need sports data junkies and statisticians in the room.
And even if someone judges the quality of the poll on the basis of whether or not their results match the poll opinions in a given year, THAT'S FINE. It may match one year, but if you keep it consistent and don't change it...it may show a different result in subseqeuent years.
