Michigan at 14, Wisky at 8, and cincy at 20 shows you this entire thing is an absolute circus

I don't mind putting Ohio St first, they do have an argument for it, as well as LSU.

About to get caught up on this thread, but I'm wondering if the Buckeye posters hare can at least admit the rankings of the other teams is very, very clearly done in order to prop up Ohio St. There's really no logic at all to some of these rankings based on this weekend's events.

The only one I find questionable is Cincinnati.

Very doubtful.

Committee made it clear with these rankings they won't allow that to happen the way the ranked LSU and OSU's top wins, it's extremely obvious.

Michigan dropping only 1 spot after getting arse raped by 30 at home isn't questionable to you?

So people wanna whine that Bama is ranked so high when they have no top 25 wins. But now it's a travesty that a team with the same record with 3 wins against ranked teams is ahead of them?

Bama's best win is over garbage aTm, they're still overranked if anything. Cincinnati shouldn't be ranked though that's mind boggling

The Big 10 is being artificially pumped up for some reason.
fake news. The computers are kinder to B1G than the committee is.

B1G tops in Massey composite: 1-5-8-14-17-18
B1G tops in CFP Committee: 1-8-10-14-16-18

Theres no reason 2 loss Wisconsin with a loss to fricking Illinois should jump 2 loss Florida who's lost to #4 and #1.

What's the logic behind Wisconsin over Bama?

MOV favors Bama
Losses obviously favor Bama
Pretty sure SOS favors Bama?


What is Wisky's argument?

So much incompatibility with these rankings.

Having Wisconsin at 8 is fine, I guess. But having Wisconsin at 8 and Minnesota at 18 just doesn't work together.

Just can’t see justification for a Wisconsin team with their bad loss above Florida who only has losses to two top four teams.


There isn't one.

Fake news. Wisconsin has a tougher schedule thanks in part to UF playing two FCS schools as opposed to Wisconsin’s zero.

There is not a single coach alive that would want Florida’s schedule over Wisconsin

It's obvious the committee truly believes OSU is the best team in the country by a good margin. So losing to them is no knock in their eyes.

It's so blatant the committee manipulated things this week to provide some justification for their rankings after they got universally raked over the coals for their stupid "completeness eye test" last week.
Committee is tougher on B1G than the computers are. Very easy to inform oneself of this.

Simply put, they are overrating the BiG 10 like crazy. It is funny that tOSU fans are now claiming that these rankings are legit to try and justify the ridiculous number of overrated big 10 teams in the top 20.

‘This is why a committee with no real criteria to follow is a joke when it comes to the rankings. They can arbitrarily move teams to help justify their ludicrous logic.

I honestly don’t care if LSU is 1,2, 3 or 4. If thy are to win, it will happen either way.

Also, this Clemson team reminds me an awful lot of the 2017 Clemson team that got their shut down by Bama. They were a good but not great team playing in a very weak league.

LSU can handle them.

Not really. They have better wins than the non-P5 schools, so you can’t put them above Michigan. And Michigan dominated ND.

I guess you could put Minnesota closer to Michigan, but their only notable win is PSU.

I like a system that puts more weight on good wins opposed to “good losses”.
