How did they "fall" 3 spots though? Just because they played a 2-10 team while others played tougher competition? Bama didn't fall when they played Western Carolina and others played tougher teams. Is that not the same? I understand the no championship argument, and its valid, but I just don't agree with them falling 3 spots.

I think people are too caught up in the old AP poll logic that teams "fall" by "SUBTRACTION" from their resume more than others rise based on how much they "ADD" to theirs.
Ohio St, FSU and Baylor simply "Added" more to their resumes than TCU in the final week when all were (according to the committee) practically in a dead heat going in.
It was more a scheduling anomaly that even allowed TCU to be ranked #3 in the first place.
They were already getting credit for their best resume games last week when all three teams in a dead heat with them still had one of their biggest ones to add.

This may be the first time I have agreed with Bama fans. The way the whole thing played out was ridiculous. Everybody can tell its about the 4 big name big money schools being in
