Sorry it’s the truth, your attempt to create a fantasy to cover your ignorance about polls isn’t fooling anyone. You don’t know what you’re talking about you’re just making stuff up and hoping we’ll buy your bluff.

Right. Polling 61 people will get you a even set of results just like polling 1000 would.
Compare the composite to the AP, they're damn close.

You've added nothing, junior but snide attacks from the back alley.
You piggyback off of others

Youre not adding unbiased voters to the biased voters.
Example:
48 represents biased voters
51 represents unbiased voters
-49 + 51 = 2
All voters are biased in some way

So the bias of the 61 AP voters isn't eliminated by adding together a bunch of individual polls?
Thanks for proving my point for me.

But they aren't biased in the same way, which is why you poll so many.
How do you feel about Massey?

The vast majority of the voters will be biased towards a handful of teams.
Alabama
Texas
Notre Dame
Michigan
Ohio State
USC
Hell, even Miami was severely over ranked due to voter bias because of the logo on their helmet.

Actually conferences, not necessarily teams.

The composite has hundreds.
And every single voter is biased in their own way.
They are biased in regards to what criteria they are judging on.
IE one voter c rank by best losses
Another voter can rank off best win
What voters choose to carry weight is biased and subjective.

Yeah, that's a thing too. Team bias and conference bias aren't mutually exclusive. Both exist.

Which adds to the bias.
Being biased in one way and adding bias in another way DOES NOT EQUAL UNBIASED.

By the same 61 people you're putting 100% of your faith in. It's also the proof of bias you keep saying doesn't exist.

Individual bias is attempted to be mitigated by methodology.

That's retarded.
What's more accurate, end of season or before anyone plays a game? No one knows shite preseason

That train is never late.
By Saturday he will be denying that he ever claimed polls were unbiased and asking you to link it.

Again, post season AP is pretty damn close to the composite. They're doing something right.
