College Football – The News About Losing

Nothing cements the attitude of being a loser like losing.  Polls are prepared for entertainment anyway – just like the game itself.  Losing Teams now have their own poll though in the First Worst Futility Rankings.  Here is the Week Six version.

This came in from a fan:

Question for the Sage of College Football:  It seems like all college football fans spend countless hours debating that the number in parentheses in front of their college’s name is too high, instead of focusing on the stuff that actually happens on the field or on what the team and coaches could tweak on offense, defense, or special teams that would help them make a run for a conference or national championship. Personally, I think if the first seven weeks were played without any polls, then maybe the focus could be on..you know…football.

Sage of College Football’s Reply:  Polls are an additional part of the entertainment.  Besides, it gives folks from Florida and Florida State a reason to sit at home and phone into radio talk shows.  It is all for hype. Polls give people something to talk and argue about.

Football Polls – Interesting Question:

Also check out the bottom ten rankings from last week and see how your favorite loser performed!

How can USC still be ranked so high when they lost to an UNRANKED TEAM prettily bad? Yet MU lost to a ranked team by 5 points and are now 11th. Not saying MU should be ranked higher than 11th, but they should be ranked higher than USC.

The polls still need to be tweaked. They’re designed to give us the best 2 teams by the end of the season, but they’re still very voter-biased. A more complicated computer model needs to be determined, but this could take years. I can’t understand the fascination with USC, not only do they have a loss to an unranked team, but they’ve only played 5 games! USC, as well as Florida (I like the Gators, but they do have a loss to a weaker team) shouldn’t be in the top 10. If Virginia Tech and UNC both win this weekend and UNC jumps VT, this will be unforgivable, since UNC LOST to VT head to head! The problem will really show when some of the undefeateds with week first half schedules lose in the next week or two. Then teams like USC, Ohio St., Florida, LSU, Georgia, etc. who have one loss will be vaulted into the top 5/top 10 based on tradition rather than merit.
