But behind a team which lost by 30 to Temple?
Yeah, that makes no sense at all. Rankings are shite.

LSU beats a ranked Wisconsin and stays at #13?

Sagarin rankings rarely bare relevance to reality.
at the end of the season they do, but yeah, not right now.

Some people will just never understand how formula-based polls work.

Amazing that rankings this terrible were ever a part of determining the national championship.

I think the 24 point arse whipping explains arkys ranking.
Are arse whippings now considered games in which you are tied at halftime?

It's truly amazing that some people who have clearly been following college football a long time still don't grasp this. The people who create these rankings formulas openly admit that they produce some strange results until later in the season once more data is collected.

When you end up covering a 21 point spread against another SEC team, yeah.

Before the game: Bert sucks, Arky doesn't deserve to be in the SEC, they are abysmal, they'll never be good again.
After the game: solid win against a quality SEC opponent.

Or if anybody listened to you before the game...."Arky will pull the upset". Nobody moves the goal post quite like a gump.

Link? I said AU would win comfortably because I know Arky is an abysmal SEC team and don't let my perspective change just because my team struggled in the first half with them.

after one week the sagarin doesnt hold much relevance. i understand how the poll works. if u understood how it worked u would know that it becomes more relevant as more games are played.

Which is exactly what happened.
ETA: no matter what the score was at the half.....or the end of the third quarter.....or what it was with 10:49 to play in the game.

arse whippings are determined after 60 minutes, not 30.

But you just claimed I said Arky would win? I think you're confusing yourself.

No, I was pointing out how ridiculous your "well you were tied at the half" argument is.
