Rank advancement is irrelevant as the committee re-ranks the entire Top 25 from scratch each week. Can you argue that their previous rankings were silly? Obviously. Alabama and Texas being behind Oregon was always egregious based on the facts on the ground (not to mention Ohio State).
If the prior ranks are irrelevant, then how can the committee determine what constitutes "quality" wins and losses? Why would championship games carry any weight given that one's opposition is neither "strong" nor "weak" since pre-playoff rankings are irrelevant? Why would Alabama advance four spots if Georgia's #1 ranking was meaningless?
I appreciate your arguments. You are helping me see why the committee made the decisions that they did. However, those decisions were ultimately erroneous and logically incoherent. Thank you, though, for the insight from the other side.
