Front page story per ESPN.
I never understood rankings on Sunday. There is no way to thoughtfully watch games and make an informed judgement in one day. Waiting till week 9 or so will render preseason hype meaningless, at least to a large degree. IMO, these are 2 big improvements already.
Regarding our recent 8 game slate decision: On the one hand
on the other hand
Hopefully Mr. Scott will realize we currently run on a different track than everyone else.
Thoughts?

Regarding our recent 8 game slate decision: On the one hand

An eight- or nine-game league schedule "is not a big deal [for the selection committee], but strength of schedule is," Hancock said.
on the other hand

"Ideally," Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott said, "we would all run the race on a similar course."
Hopefully Mr. Scott will realize we currently run on a different track than everyone else.

Both great ideas. Good start.

Smart.
I am sure the AP will still release thier irrelevant poll in August and give us all something to talk about but having the rankings when the season is already halfway over makes more sense.

Fricking stupid. Why do they need to release their rankings? Does the committee that selects teams for the NCAA tournament do the same thing? No, because it's stupid and they're only doing to to get the buzz out and make money for places like ESPN.
