JTW's College Football Power Rankings

[nflman2033]

cool

[Sharkweather]

Ah snap... JTW is back at it again.

[Gonzo]

This is really good stuff man.

[DSpydr84]

lol at Iowa receiving a first place vote. Which one was that in?

[Senser81]

How can G-Tech be above Miami, when Miami shutdown GT head-to-head?

How can USC be above both G-Tech and Miami? G-Tech has a better record and their only loss is to Miami...USC lost to frickin' Washington.

[Senser81]

The only one where Georgia Tech doesn't is the Predictor model, which factors in margin of victory. If you take out the human polls, USC would still rank ahead of Georgia Tech, but only by two points, compared to the 18 point difference right now.

Does the Predictor model reward USC for their stomping of San Jose State?

[Woy]

I liked how high you ranked Oregon. Nice job.

[Senser81]

LOL at Oregon being ranked above Boise State.

[Warner2BruceTD]

LOL at Oregon being ranked above Boise State.

College Football--Every Game Counts!

*unless it's an early season game, because, you know, teams might not "be themselves" yet, so games in September kinda count, but not really, beacuse I mean, who has Boise really played since then, and gosh, Oregon just crushed USC, and that game was in October (practically November!), so it obviously means more now, you know?

[Senser81]

Why, just because Boise State beat them all the way back in week 1?

Yeah, its one of those "just because" things. They beat Oregon when Oregon had LaGarrette Blount, and since we are basically dismissing logic, I'd also like to point out that Boise beat Oregon last year too.

I'd also put Boise State above Oregon just because they are undefeated and Oregon isn't.

I think Oregon is overrated because you are overrating "Big Win" Cal and USC. Also, nice job putting 5-3 Oklahoma over 6-2 BYU.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Why, just because Boise State beat them all the way back in week 1?

Since then, Oregon has big wins against Utah, Cal, and USC.

Boise State, they should be able to sleep walk to an undefeated record considering their schedule.

Ranking Breakdown

This is the biggest flaw in the way college football does things.

Boise beat Oregon. Let me repeat. BOISE BEAT OREGON.

And they are undefeated, on top of that.

In no other sport, do we completely disreagrd wins and team record, and just use subjective nonsense like "well, that was way back in Week 1".

Boise beat Oregon. I mean, how much more clear cut can it be?

And the Oakland Raiders beat the Philadelphia Eagles, but would you realistically say the Raiders are a better team than the Eagles?

To focus on one game ignores the "any given day" aspect of sports. You have to look at the season as a whole.

That's a HORRIBLE argument because the Oakland Raiders have lost to nearly everybody before and after Philly . Boise have beat everybody put in their way . They are undefeated ..... nobody has beat them . Nobody , zilche . Not a team walking in college football has beat them . So why aren't they ahead of Oregon? They beat them on this undefeated run aswell ....

Sure they have an easy schedule . Most of it isin't Boises fault either ....

You know how hard it must be for Boise to get good teams to play them? Why would anybody want to play Boise in the main conferences? You have NOTHING to gain and everything to lose by playing them . They destoryed Oregon then beat everybody who they are supposed to beat yet they get punished? Something is wrong , no?

If the Oakland Raiders were undefeated, yeah, I would.

And if a 1-8 Sun Belt team upset Oregon, I'd tell you Oregon was better.

BUt Boise is unbeaten, has been a great team for years, and beat Oregon two straight games.

Where is the debate here?

There isin't one .... it's the same people (in general) that spat on Utah and Boise in the past only to get slapped in the face come bowl time

*waits for somebody to bring up Hawaii*

[Senser81]

First of all, what the hell does last year have to do with anything?

Judging from your postings, about as much as this year, since you seem intent on ignoring Boise State's undefeated record. Throw in Oregon's loss to Boise last year, and now we have two things for you to ignore.
