TCU fell to #6, because they lost to Baylor, and didn't win their conference. Problem is, people want to treat the committee rankings like they treated the polls, and it is a completely different system.

This is the rub. The committee looks at resumes on a weekly basis. It's how things stand at that point in time. Prior to last weekend, tOSU had a weaker resume than TCU. However, after last week, tOSU was an outright conference champion, and had two impressive blowout wins on their resume. TCU was a "co-champ" and their "biggest win" took a serious hit when OU lost. After last weekend, tOSU simply had the better resume. Like you said, this isn't like the AP and coaches "win and advance" polls.
There really isn't any point in releasing the committee rankings before the end of the season.

I disagree. They are "point in time" rankings and they help gauge where you are and where you need to go. Plus, unlike the other polls, they're fluid. Plus/plus, unlike the AP and Coaches polls, they wait until some football is actually played, and decent opinions can be formed before even releasing their initial poll. I think it's useful to have weekly rankings after a reasonable opinion can be formed.

*Edit* Wow, we've drifted really off topic here. This stuff should probably be moved to the "polls" or "playoffs" threads. :lol:

As far as the KF hiring goes, does that not speak even more to the fact it isn't harbaugh?

Also, in a related thread a certain scUM fan leaked estrogen all down his leg about anyone daring believe the job is being shotgunned around the coaching fraternity.

This pretty much puts that one to bed as well (not that I ever doubted it).

Fuck M*ch*gan.....I hope the next guy is even worse than the last two.
