CFB rankings too biased

LSU lost to Bama and dropped 11 spots, while Auburn lost to Bama and just dropped a spot?!?!
Gators lost to 'Noles and are still at the same spot as previous week!

Lost to Auburn, 3 loss team. Lost to Florida, 3 loss team. How is that biased? If they beat you, and have a better record, they should be ahead of you.

Looks like they are at least trying to think it through, not knee jerk react to losses. However, I would say there are some mistakes. For instance, Utah lost a close one to No. 9 Colorado and jumped 2 spots. Utah has lost 3 of its last 4. The losses to Wash and Colorado may be acceptable, the loss to 4-8 Oregon is not.
LSU has not beaten a team currently ranked in the CFP poll. They have 4 losses, all to teams ranked ahead of them in the poll. I would say the polls have LSU about right.

2 to the top 4 and they beat us. The real dispute should be how far we fell when we lost to bama. Losing to florida is what is the killer. Aren't we the highest ranked 7 win team??

We're the ONLY 7 win team in the top 25.
We are ranked with the 4 loss teams.
Auburn and Florida are ranked with the 3 loss teams
That shouldn't be the issue...
Dropping 11 spots after Bama loss is

I think the issue is other teams not dropping after losses more so then where LSU is currently ranked.

The rankings are way more complicated than, lose to team X, drop Y spots.
Who else lost that week? Who all have you beaten? What's your resume like? What's your record?
And all of this in comparison to others.

I have a bigger beef with the 13-14 spots after losing by 2 on the road to Wisconsin. Especially when we were in FG range to win the game.

Are you suggesting LSU deserves to be behind other 4 loss schools because we had to cancel a cupcake due to FL hurricane?
LSU is ranked behind Utah (8-4). It is only 1 spot, but the fact remains that the committee ranked LSU behind a 4 loss utah, who lost to shite schools: Cal (5-7), Oregon (4-8). LSU would destroy Utah.

The real joke was dropping 19 spots after losing a close game to the #10 team(Wisconsin)

Does it really matter???? We lost to both so why should we be ahead of them.

Did you see the shite show on offense that game...LSU deserved to drop significantly after the Bama loss. I am not sure it should have been 11, but there were obviously other factors that week that contributed to the drop other than LSU's incredibly poor showing on offense.

The down votes for the comment above proves that there are some amazing idiots on this board with absolutely no sense of reality.

Thank Les Miles for more of the same hardheaded bullshite on this one. The polsters were seeing the same team and scheme from November of 2015 when they cast their votes. From the stands, they didn't look like a top 50 team that day.
