/r/CFB Poll

Overall Rationale: FIRST FIVE OUT: Pitt (29.000), Boise St (28.650), Kentucky (24.900), Utah St (24.150), Utah (23.550). There are two ideologies for polls: 1. Who would win in a theoretical
matchup? and 2. Who has the best report card? This is a 100% computer
poll following the latter idea. At the beginning of the season it is
hard to know which losses are quality losses and which are bad losses
because of everyone's short resume`, so teams move around a lot early,
but have mostly steadied out. Alabama and Cincinnati have dropped a lot recently due to playing bottom 25 teams(#124 New Mexico St and #113 USF). They both have harder opponents the following 2 weeks (#17 Arkansas and #24 Auburn, #45 SMU and #70 East Carolina), so they will be able to rise significantly.├é┬á Here's the INTERACTIVE freshly rebuilt
