c/cfb Poll Week 12
c/cfb Poll Week 12
Alright, we're in the endgame now y'all. Expect to see some serious movement this week...

My ballot. Computer poll. I realized this week that in my haste to calculate last week's results, I forgot to make adjustments to all the teams that were on bye and thus over-ranked each of them. D'oh. I corrected it for this week, so that's why the change values will not line up with what I posted last week.
I am amused that despite Alabama's blowout win, they only move up one place (the computer definitely predicted that result, too, as it is really a power-rating kind of formula). Similar situation with Ole Miss and Georgia (it did not think very highly of the dogs). Virginia Tech baffles me, holding the same position for 3 weeks like a stuck pixel.

It has been begrudgingly moving them up with each win. But they drop 10 spots after losing to the #11 team (according to my poll), behind five 2-loss teams and one 3-loss team.
My poll must not be impressed by their margin of victory (vs expectations) or something, even though that is a pretty small portion of the equation. Most of the rating comes from a modified ELO that only cares about win/loss.
