Alrighty, let's talk about these rankings a bit.

TCU at #2 ahead of Oregon? Yeah, Oregon has played one less game. Once they get to the same amount, they'll be pretty equal, considering they both still have solid opponents to play.

Boise State all the way at #8? Same reason - they've only played 7 games so far, so they'll be able to make up a lot of ground in the next five weeks. (As long as their SoS doesn't hold them down like a rock.) That's why Michigan State is still at #4 - already played 9.

LSU ahead of Bama... interesting. That'll be put to be this week, but it goes to show that losses matter - the Tigers loss to Auburn is looking better and better (objectively), while the Tide's loss to South Carolina is looking worse and worse.
