re: SECW Teams : Preseason AP Rankings vs Final AP Ranking (2011 - 2015)

Hard to value it for teams that are consistently ranked in the Top 5 like Alabama, much like the "recruiting ranking vs final ranking" stat that people love using. There is literally no way for someone like Alabama to be any better than a 1 to 1, so there is no way for them to "win" that sort of argument.

Exactly.

Also this is based on opinions of people whose opinions garner no respect in the first place. If they did, we wouldn't have implemented the playoff system.
