Each week's rankings are standalone.

Last week's has no bearing on this week's.

I would love to see OSU over the Big 12.

They can say that all they want, but it's simply not true. All the reasons they had for ranking the teams as they did last week are still relevant and will be used, as with whatever they take from this weekend to form the new poll. If every weeks rankings were standalone and had no effect on the next, then the only games that would matter would be the ones from this weekend to form this weeks poll, which is simply untrue. The same method that they use to create their poll is no different than any other poll, they just like to use fancy wording to give the impression they have more credibility than a "normal" poll.

I think they ranked last week hoping Kansas St would take care of their problem for them

They didn't.

I think OSU made a point for themselves over TCU and Baylor.

I also think there should be a point made about the BIG 12 trying to game the system by going to this co-champ bullshite.

If OSU gets in it'll be because they'll bring more money to the situation.. part of the reason I don't like the committee format. Playoff system ...yes, small selection committee... no.

FSU fans have to be concerned. They're undefeated and the reigning champs, but they seem to get worse every week. Ohio State is going to push someone out..... it's either TCU or FSU.
