Sam's Big Poll (Week 6)


Here's the rankings for week 6. LSU's back on top following their defeat of the Gators in the single most intense football game I've seen in years. The ranks of undefeated teams has fallen to 11, many of which have pretty dubious credentials and are almost certainly destined to be exposed. Of the unbeatens, only LSU, Cal, and South Florida have faced serious competition. None of the other eight have schedule strength's in the top 80. BC, Cincinnati, UConn and Hawaii have SoS rankings of 112, 114, 119, and 120.

Ranking = 1.2*Team Rating + 1.2*W/L Factor + 0.9*Schedule Strength
