IMO polls should carry over from the prior year final poll to week 1 and then you start re-ranking and moving teams when games are actuallyplayed.

Preseason rankings are pointless so at least give it a baseline like prior year.

Maybe it’s me being a CPA and rolling forward prior year balances, etc.

Someone brought up a really perverse incentive to 12/14/16 playoff format as presently organized...

You'd rather be the the team in say SEC/B1G that gets into playoff but didn't make your conference championship game only to lose that game due to how it shakes out for the bracket.

Exactly right. Starting with the Texas-Mich game, many of those in front of us will suffer from the attrition of playing each other. We can avoid any questions by winning our games.

Or you have a preseason prediction poll, and it’s locked until after week 3 games are played

i know this is your “should be,” but our FAMU win isn’t bumping us 5 spots when only 2 lost above us.

Plus … Oregon. They haven’t looked their ranking yet but no way they’re dropped much, if at all, for beating a decent BSU team.

And multiple teams above us played like **** against terrible competition, particularly Pedo State.

The voters dropped **** performers last week, they may very well do it again this week.

lol at leaving pedo state in the top 10. Literally escaped with a win yesterday. And that was after looking like trash against WVU. I watched parts of the game yesterday and they are slow, poorly coached on D, and got a ton of home cooking. A couple PIs that weren’t called that might have put the game away for BG.
 
We should be so lucky to get Pedo State in a playoff format. Instead,, we’ll probably draw OL’ Miss.
 
Rankings are fun for fans and we've all grown up with them and they're a part of college football. But of course they don't matter anymore like they used to. All we need to do is win and everything will fall in to place.
