Actually losing a game is part of your performance
No, that is the result of the performance.
Things like the points you score, the yards you give up, the yards you get and everything else matters, but not the result. Not for power rankings.
But again, it's a main factor in season rankings.

Your wrong
The outcome of a game is part of the subjective part of a power ranking
You’re just choosing to leave that part of the equation out because you got your butt kicked a couple days ago
Had it been the other way around you would be arguing that you should be above Oklahoma because you just kicked their butt

So what is the reason all the computer power rankings do the same thing?
Furthermore, I was ranking Georgia #1 even when everyone else was ranking Alabama #1. I've had Georgia #1 and Alabama #2 for many weeks now. So have the computers. Because in power rankings it doesn't matter that Alabama won the game.
I mean if you want to do a SEC season rankings, I'll happily rank Alabama #5 and Texas A&M #1.
It sounds to me like you are just projecting and assuming everyone else operates with the same bias.

Power rankings aren’t just statistics though
You’re trying to just purposely choose to leave off the part of the power ranking that does include recent losses and wins, and only includes statistics
Sorry buddy, a recent loss affects your power ranking
It's obvious the difference between power rankings and season rankings is not something you'll be able to grasp. And I think I've done a pretty decent job of explaining them for anyone who wants to understand the difference.
So lick my balls.

You are the one wanting to do a ranking with bias instead of using all data available

You’re just pissed because you got your arse kicked by Oklahoma
Why don’t you just admit that?

Because I have nothing to be pissed about.
I've been watching Alabama football for 50 years. I've seen 9 national championships. I've watched seasons basically end because of bad injuries, I've watched us start a season ranked #3 and only finish with 3 wins and everything in between. 20 years ago I just wanted a coach who didn't embarrass Alabama off the field or get us in NCAA trouble.
These aren't bad times, I have nothing to melt or be pissed about. You know what really sucks? Getting dominated because you don't have a good team.
You get a team that might be decent and you lose your fricking mind.
The only thing that pisses me off about this past weekend is that not only did it not knock Alabama out of the National Championship picture completely, we still control our own destiny. It's horseshite what they've done to the college football regular season.
