Both rankings make perfect sense
No, they don't. Both LSU and aTm were dominated in both losses this year. LSU is improving and may climb into the top 12 by seasons end. aTm has no business being ranked on any list other than shittiest FBS teams.

No, they don't.
If you take winning percentage, don't count FCS wins, and weigh the old BCS SOS formula equally to winning percentage, here are your top ten:
1 Mississippi State
2 Florida State
3 Auburn
4 Mississippi
5 Alabama
6 Oregon
7 Marshall
8 Notre Dame
9 Nebraska
10 Louisiana State
And this is before you account for quality wins. So yeah, these rankings make perfect, mathematical sense.
