Like that you are giving teams credit for getting better and earlier Ls count less.

Bring back the computers to account for 50% of the equation

I ran the numbers today.

IMO, the committee used the 6 BCS computers, throwing out the high and low, and then averaging the other 4.

This placed teams in buckets.

1.00 Ohio State
2.00 Indiana

5.30 Georgia
8.50 Texas Tech *
4.70 Oregon

6.00 Ole Miss
6.75 Texas A&M

8.75 Oklahoma H2H
8.50 Alabama H2H
9.50 Notre Dame **
7.25 BYU - this one was puzzling

14.25 Miami ** +
13.25 Texas H2H +
13.25 Vanderbilt H2H
14.00 Utah

* IMO Texas Tech was moved up because their QB didn’t play during their 4 point loss at ASU

** IMO Notre Dame and Miami H2H not considered because of the 5 point gap differential

+ IMO Miami over Texas based on Florida game

It actually makes sense when you look at this way, but they kinda screwed BYU.. political shenanigans imo

I would increase the win/loss points as the season progresses because teams are supposed to get better as they play more games. A late season loss should be more detrimental than an early season loss.

For this, there has to be a detriment for scheduling weak non conference games toward the end of the season to prevent teams from gaming the point system late in the season.

Great point.

Bottom-line is there needs to be some sort of calculation, and the human goofs on the committee need to have a limited role.

Your model would introduce a new problem, who is top 10 vs top 25 vs some other ranking? Committee could move one team up just a bit, which means any team that beat that moved up team would get more points, and thus would be raised higher. Or, committee could move a team down a tier, impacting the ranking of another team who beat the demoted team. It’s all kind of circular.

Easily solved by taking an average of all the polls. No one poll would be able to skew the ranking to the extent it makes a large difference.
