Poll Rankings Nutty


Recommended Posts

Playing game as Michigan.... Start of season ranked #2 plays a close game to unranked E. Mich wins 34-21, USC who is ranked #1 doesnt play so Mich moves up to #1. Week 2 plays 25th ranked OSU and destroys them stays #1 in both polls. Week 3 off week... nothing changes Week 4 plays the #7th ranked Irish has a poor game losing 21-7 , now the strange part ( note I felt all along Mich is a bit over ranked ) . ND goes from 7 to 3 this isnt to bad but Mich falls to UNRANKED in the Media poll and 20th in the coaches poll. I would think they fall to about the 8-12 range. Mish is still ranked #13 overall defence but the main problem with the offensive hardships is dispite putting 10 tutor hours on their starting QB he gets put on Acidemic probation in week 3.... OUCH Not overly crazy or unrealistic but seems looking at the polls each week theirs not a lot of rime or reason to the rankings will keep an eye on it more as the season progresses.

QB just stupid??? As stated put 10 hours on my QB and he was suspended in week 3, put another 10 tutor hours on him and still remains suspended in week 6. Two other players suspended in week 3 had 5 hours put on them and they now are eligable for week 6. Are some players just so stupid they stay on Ac. Porbation no matter how many hours you give them??

Look at their intelligence and work ethic, if they are stupid and lazy nothing will save them from failling so don't waste your hours on them.

#14 Mich 17 at #8 Wisc 28 dam :confused: M16, C14, GD17 The dumb QB finnaly comes back but now the league leading rusher is suspended ( and I am out of hours ) You would think a top heisman candidate would have SOMEONE payoff a teacher or two before they let his grades effect his eligability.... :mad:

I've been seeing some of the same weirdness described above. What is supposed to be the human polls isn't weighing what happened the latest week enough. Human polls will always value what just happened a lot more than what happened 6 or 8 weeks ago. I've seen a #1 team lose to the #9 team and stay #1. There were no other unbeatens at the time, but this was the last week in the season and the teams ranked #2 and #3 had both lost very early in the season. That just wouldn't happen. You lose, you drop. You just hope that if you lose, you lose early and have a chance to make it up. Thats just the way the human polls work.
