Polls are stupid and unnecessary.

Not at all. Poll momentum. We were just a week from being blown out. Not to mention, they out gained us in the first half. It wasn't looking good. The 3rd quarter is where we exploded. They even out gained us in the 4th, but we were playing soft zone by then. Take care of biz the next 2 weeks, and we should be ranked in the top 20.

The biggest problem with the polls has always been it uses number of losses as the primary criteria to rank teams, which is completely absurd because your number of losses at any given point in time is as much a function of your schedule as the quality of your team.


Yes. This is why I was somewhat leery of the SEC going to a 9 game schedule. You don't get more credit for adding another potential loss to your schedule. People aren't great with nuance and sophisticated comparison. They just look at a 10-1 and a 9-3 team and have a hard time giving more credit to the 9-3 team under any circumstance.
