I was wondering where PSU was today.......

Classic rant!! This should be nominated for a "Ranty" award.

I think this is a case of Arbi-mania.

But quite cool.

So N/A will take on N/A in the final game.... I like N/A's odds.

It will probably be cancelled this year.

What about bye?

Typical east coast bias :)

Have you seen their strength of schedule? Bye plays everyone this year.

Maybe so, but it includes Charleston Southern, so Bye's SOS is overrated.

PSU, you're an idiot. Northern Iowa should be at least 15 for losing to Iowa by only 1 point, and Arkansas State should be at least 22 for losing to Iowa by only 3. Cmon man these teams are powerhouses! Both of em killed my highschool team by over 12 points combined this year!

While it is true Arkansas State had that solid victory over FIU, who beat Western Kentucky... who had that moral victory over Navy, which should have beat THE Ohio State University, I found that the fact they pretty much sucked in every other game keeps them properly rated at just below "Others Receiving Votes". But they could finish strong.

Hats off to PSU - this is classic indeed. It reminds me of last year when Alabama and Texas were the only undefeated teams and Stewart Mandel wrote that he would have to rank them 1 and 2, leave the next 12 spots blank, and start ranking everyone else at #15 so as to satisfy all of his emails decrying the "over-rating" of every other top-15 team.

To be fair, I think your rankings need Notre Dame among "others receiving votes" because somebody somewhere will vote for them.

Now everyone is appropriately ranked. Arbi should be happy. What are your overrated rankings?

Overrated: Moe
Underrated: Larry

How do you not have Florida State ranked?! We're the best 4-loss team in the nation!

I notice an FBS Conference bias here.
Not a single FCS team or independant in the top 25. Not a one.

...and what about 2 teams, from the SEC, B10, and PAC,
but ony 1 from the ACC, Big East, and B12?
I detect a clear regional bias.

If parity is the goal, then this would be what the result would be. Be careful what you wish for ...

Great rant PSU.

By the way, bye did not play Michigan this year.

(good thing we didn't stand a chance)

Maybe that's our problem, Sept 5 to Nov 21, no bye week.

As a fan of N/A, I can't believe that you had the audacity to suggest any other teams could even exist on the same electronic page. Clearly N/A is the cream of crop and all should bow down or bend over. N/A is the alpha and the omega. N/A should hold all 25 positions. In fact, let's just not play games at all. N/A reigns supreme over all you clowns, forever....
