Pseudo-BCS computer algorithm rankings

What I like about formula rankings is it eliminates all the bullshite and bias. Strength of schedule weighted heavily which favors the SEC and teams that man up and schedule. LSU fans relax, this considers the whole season, not a power ranking for teams that have improved. It's interesting to see where these rankings differ from the pollsters.

I agree with the top 5. After that (grinding teeth) A&M is probably too high. Boise State... shut up.

Last thought. I wouldn't be mad if this is how they decided the playoff teams. 2/3 human polling, 1/3 computer rankings.

I wouldnt mind the CFP teams being chosen by the computer rankings. I also dont like that the coaches poll would carry any weight though...I'd be surprised if 10% of the actual coaches fill it out.

I dont believe Nebraska nor West Virginia will be in the top 25 at the end of the season.

Why is the AP listed with a pseudo-BCS ranking? The AP wasn't part of the BCS formula from 2004 on.

But seriously recall that the SEC did not do very well on the opening few weeks of the season OOC.
Many losses: LSU, Auburn, Missouri, State, Ole Miss, Kentucky.
And several scares: Arkansas, aTm, Georgia, Tennessee.
