Maybe resume-based rankings aren’t all that bad? This was week 7… Things changed, teams fell and rose with wins and losses, but very possible this is our playoff 4, and this particular algorithm had it in week 7. Maybe give it a chance before the harassment?

@blinkinriley Yep, you’ve got it exactly. In a few weeks it’ll look similar to many of the AP poll voters. More games = better rankings. Early weeks are a little wild as every team has so little known about them, since it’s only 2021 data. Appreciate you sharing and taking the time to look!

The Playoff 4 is very simple at this point. Georgia is in. Big Ten Champ (OSU or MICH) is in. Cincy is in with wins. Alabama needs to beat Georgia, if they don’t it goes to a 1 loss Big 12 champ, otherwise Notre Dame.

Power 5 teams with 10-2 regular season records: Alabama Tennessee Penn State Clemson Washington If there’s ANY argument for Alabama in the playoff, the other 4 teams all deserve to hear the same one. Does it sound crazy? Yes, because these teams shouldn’t be in the 4.

As of this moment in time (3:45 ET), Power Digits ranks Baylor's resume as better than Notre Dame's. ND will get a bump with a Cincinnati win, but that won't be enough to jump Baylor. Better schedule overcomes the 1 loss difference.

@CFBKings “Ranked at the time” and early season biased rankings are exactly what the algorithm is set to destroy. As your opponents win, the rankings will rise. KSU has wins over Stanford and Nevada, both schools who keep winning. Alabama’s Miami opponent has other losses.
