To say that these things are completely unimportant is naive. While these "fun" off-season rankings may not be as important as the rankings after a few weeks of football, they still shape and influence the perception of teams. With the "playoff" spots being decided by a committee, untied to any actual formula, these perceptions are more important than they have been in previous years.
Say an un-ranked team, Ole Miss, goes 11-1 and Michigan State goes 11-1. Of course M-State will get in because of previous perceptions.
So, while often things work themselves out on the field. There are times where these "meaningless" rankings actually matter.

Jennings is a stud. Chip wanted that kid badly. He was his only offer.

Bragging?
Nah.
Simply stating that that is impressive for a true freshman quarterback making his first collegiate appearance in a situation like that and thriving.
