to the effect that it could create bias towards MSU, no.


So Google does not tweak algorithms to favor it's own sites and advertisers?

So Facebook does not tweak algorithms to favor it's agenda?

So it has not been proven that certain computer polls, such as Jeff Sagarin's, were tweaked to favor teams in specific regions of the country, or with strong traditions? Somuchso that certain computer polls and ratings systems were eliminated from the current playoff system structure?

I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree.

You're claiming his rating system is foolproof and incorruptible while even he (Boyd) would not boast the same claim.

You're talking about the pseudo-RPI, not a ranking system like Sagarin. He's trying to mimic the official RPI.

I'm certain the Vactican, the Queen, the Gettys, the Rothchilds, and MSU control everything though so you're probably right
