Can I rant for a second?
I'm sick of polls. I just can't get past the fact that it makes little to no sense that we decide who's best in CFB based on a popularity contest.
Think about USC for a second. They are - what, like 10-2? - and just annhilated UCLA, 50 - 0. If this was 2003 to 2008, USC with that record would be top 10, no doubt in my mind. Yet, because it's not 2003 to 2008, they're now unranked.
Notre Dame is another team that comes to mind. If it's 1986 and they were 9-2 (or whatever they were before they got beat by Stanford last night), then they'd be top 10 too.
I'm sick of teams getting credit for tradition and I'm sick of teams getting penalized for perceived "down years." I'm just sick of polls, period.
