This pretty much sums up why people find his "formula" comical. Where do you start?

5. Georgia
9. Mississippi State
12. Georgia Tech
13. Clemson
16. Florida State
 
Oh I should add Arkansas is at 10, despite going 2-6 vs. Top 30 and 1-3 vs. top 10.



A 7-6 team is #10 rated team according to Sagarin. Despite losing three games to teams outside of the top 10.


Think about it.

Veer said he knows how it works, so I am STILL waiting on him to provide it.
 
Where did Sagarin have MU at? Someone on a different thread said he ranked them above FSU. While I think MU could hang with and possibly pull off the upset, FSU had a tougher schedule than MU and finished it with only one loss. Ranking MU above FSU would just be silly.

My reasoning for singling out those above....


5. Georgia 10-3 (SOS, 8) 1-0 vs. top ten, that top ten you might ask is Arkansas who is ******** 7-6. Lost to G-Tech sitting at 12. AND TWO OTHER TEAMS HE HAS RATED OUTSIDE OF THE TOP 25.

7. Mississippi 9-4(SOS, 3) 2-2 vs. top ten. Beat Bama(who finished 3rd over Oregon at 4, TCU at 2) and MS State at 8.

8. Mississippi State 10-3(SOS, 17) 1-2 vs. top ten. Lost to Bama and Ole'Miss but beat #10 Arkansas(along with FIVE OTHER ****** TEAMS)

10. Arkansas 7-6. No need to further elaborate.

Now to the funny part.

12. Georgia Tech. 10-3(SOS 28) 2-0 vs. Top Ten. So they had the same record and beat BOTH Mississippi State and Georgia, yet finished ranked behind BOTH teams. Which helps skew the "top ten" wins when it comes to the above SEC teams.

13. Clemson 10-3(SOS 48) 0-1 vs. Top Ten. They lost to Georgia in OT. And lost to G-Tech 28-6.

16. FSU 13-1(SOS 20) 0-1 vs. top ten. So here is another laugher. FSU beat Clemson, with a backup QB and beat G-Tech, their lone loss coming to the #4 team in the country. Yet he has them rated as the #16 team in the country, despite playing a SOS stronger than both Clemson and Georgia Tech.

He created Skynet. Ignore at your own peril.
