So we manhandle a nobody and maybe just switched to a less experienced QB. Makes sense to me computer. Great work!

I agree. Too soon to say with any certainty. But I saw 3 teams on a different level than everybody else week 1. Bama, tOSU and OU. I'll throw in Clemson on reputation, but I didn't see them. I saw major flaws in everybody else I watched, which may or may not be corrected this week.

Auburn had some first game issues, but I did notice something about them nobody is talking about. I saw Auburn struggling during most of the third quarter, I mean fighting and clawing, but with about 10 minutes left in the 4th.(clutch time), Auburn took control. That is a really good sign and something only humans and not computers would notice.

I thought when football season arrived we'd be done with all of this nonsense.

Well, it's worth monitoring but they really only get the top two or three correct every year so .... the rest is just like every other computer generated ranking. It takes weeks of data input before it starts to take shape.

The point is that you can predict with 100% accuracy what the results will be, and what calculations were used. Can't do that with a human voter week-to-week. Once the program is set into motion, the human has no input. That's a completely valid distinction to make when talking human vs computer here. Your statement is like saying a human programmed your calculator, so you can't trust the calculations it makes.
