Lets just look at 4 teams on this ballot. OU (8), OK St (10), BYU (20)and Georgia (18). According to this ballot, the "worst" team of these 4 is the team that just beat the "best" of these 4 on a barely-neutral field. OK state, on the other hand, had a victory over a team that is "better" than the one OU lost to. BUT, OU is still ranked higher. In what world does this make sense?
The Season is early Clark. Everyone has mostly played cream puffs... I still using mostly my preseason opinions.
Can't make rash judments or any other judments yet.. This is a big week, So is week 3. Then and only then will we start to see the cream rise to the top.
I agree with your opinion, but hold decisions and jumping on anyones band wagan yet.
Thanks for the comment !
Lets go over it again next week.
