This is the same two teams that were listed #1 and #2 in the ESPN FPI rankings.

I mean that's pretty close

And what's the ESPN FPI rankings?

"The Football Power Index (FPI) is a measure of team strength that is meant to be the best predictor of a team's performance going forward for the rest of the season. FPI represents how many points above or below average a team is. Projected results are based on 10,000 simulations of the rest of the season using FPI, results to date, and the remaining schedule."

The fact that it has Alabama #1 should be enough to tell you that it's a pretty worthless measuring stick. And it has Auburn ahead of Oklahoma right now.

If you're paying attention to things like the ESPN FPI rankings, again, you're not listening to what the committee has been saying. It's just some meaningless computer ranking system that some computer geek at ESPN came up with. It literally is worth shite.
