All I did was answer your question. I don't care where Sagarin ranks their schedule.

If Karen Lotz is quoting Sagarin then it has zero crediblity. He had Florida after their destruction at the hands of Alabama still at the 4th best team in the country. Now they have lost to LSU they are very over valued.

Zero credibility?? Is it used in the BCS formula? It has just as much credibility as the Harris Poll.

Vanderbilt
Illinois State
Rice
Central Michigan
Minnesota
Purdue

Please explain how going 5-1 against that schedule warrants votes in any top 25 poll.

Sagarin's ranking that is used by the BCS has Ohio State ranked #23 in the country right now, and has Delaware #18.

I would more highly regard Sleeper's SOS and team rankings than I would Jeff Sagarin's.

And its still a part of the BCS, so to say it has zero credibility is inaccurate.

Harris Poll had Oklahoma and Auburn outside the top 25 last week. Zero credibility.

The last Harris poll was at the end of last season.

Why include the rankings from last year then? I used your information for my post. You lose credibility.

I know your trolling, but please tell me where I cited any Harris poll other than the current one.

Oh, because ESPN had their previous rank on there when I copied and pasted the poll? Ok, I guess that would confuse someone like you.

It also had ND in there somewhere, sometime, zero credibility.

I'm not trolling, I asked a simple question about Northwestern. Other people have questioned them receiving votes in other polls as well.

Eh, I think the fault is on you for not realizing that the Harris poll previous rankings were from last season. You should either be smart enough to realize while looking at the previous rankings that something funky is up or at least know the Harris Poll was just released... don't try to blame your ignorance on someone else.

Cool. Maybe I should just say I don't care where the Harris Poll ranks anyone and that will be good enough right?

No, just admitting you were wrong is all they are looking for.

Yes I was wrong in that I wasn't aware that the Harris Poll quoted was the first of the year.

From last year, but prior to Bowl games. Oregon was 7 and Ohio State was 8. TCU was 3rd?

Zero Credibility, the fact that use it in the BCS is tragic. I could do better with cards with each team name, a blindfold and darts.
