Just a few quick facts...
The final AP poll has been released and UF (13-1) is number one, Utah (13-0) is number two with 16 first place votes, out-voted 3-1 by the Gators who got 48 first place votes.
USC (12-1) got out-voted by UF 48-1, the Trojans got one first place vote.
One.
USC's played three teams that finished in the AP's top 10.
USC beat those three teams (Oregon, Penn State and Ohio State) by a combined 80 points, almost 27 points per game margain of victory
UF played two teams that finished in the AP top 10, UF beat those two teams by a combined 21 points, or 10.5 points per game.
UF lost at home to AP #14 Ole Miss, USC lost on the road to AP # 18 Oregon State.
Both teams (Ole Miss and Oregon State) finished with bowl victories and 9-4 records. Of Oregon State's 4 losses, 3 came against teams that ended up finishing in the AP top 10 (Utah, Penn St and Oregon).
Ole Miss lost to powerhouses such as Wake Forest, Vanderbilt and South Carolina.
Quickly...
is UF 48 to 1 better than USC?
I strongly encourage counter arguments, but please, just facts!

I was just talking to Tiernan about a playoff system and he thought I should post it to you.
ReplyDeleteThe first 5 games of the year are played normally and ranked normally. The rest of the games are a Round of 128 tournament (based on the first 5 week rankings). All the teams play the remaining 7 weeks, with winners continuing on, and losers playing other losers. By the end, you would have a national champion, as well as a final ranking for all the college football teams. Maybe Obama will make me his College Football Czar.
