These computer rankings and pollsters only really start to make sense towards the end of the year. Last I checked, LSU and Florida both won BCS championships with one loss. Also, why talk about the number of wins of teams that you lost to? How about the cumulative record of only teams you beat.

We deeply regret the pain this error may have caused Buckeye fans. <BR/><BR/>Obviously that completely invalidates the entire post. OSU is number 1 and has played the toughest schedule in football, including the pros.<BR/><BR/>/sarcasm.<BR/><BR/>An error is Henry Louis Gomezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03167391252653145914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35816861.post-72827064687602373662007-10-18T16:45:00.000-04:002007-10-18T16:45:00.000-04:00Uh, speaking of fraud you might want add up the nu...Uh, speaking of fraud you might want add up the numbers again. Looking at Ohio State (and assuming that the table is correct which now seems doubtful), I don't see how it adds up to 17 and 23.

I did this because going solely by wins and losses forces a black-and-white view of how games turn out, rather than allow for the continuum of quality that actually exists to come out. Is a win over 4-2 Auburn the same as a win over 4-2 Wyoming? I say no.
