All the posters in this thread that are saying,"pre season polls are irrelevant", arent remembering 2004 well. If two teams start at 1&2 , and they go undefeated ad so does the #3 team, that #3 team will get left out. I'm glad next year, we have a playoff somewhat.

This is true. I'm glad to see the playoff coming as well.

Polls shouldn't be released any earlier then the end of September in a perfect world.

Unfortunately because at least one poll ties into the BCS equation the rankings do matter.
