How can a team drop in the polls if they just happen to beat a weak team that week? It's stupid, I think. Until that team loses, they should stay at the same ranking, or move up with a team ahead of them that loses.

You drop them because the rankings are flawed to begin with. OU was number one to start the season in part because they were seen as the team most likely to go undefeated this year, not because they were seen as the best team. They didn't win the number one spot on the field. This is all part of the reason the rankings are a joke.
