Interesting rankings, I think its funny, in the sports world as a sports writer the worst thing you can do is try to rank teams, it doesn't matter what formulas you use, 90 % of the comments are going to blast you for trying. Most of the elite programs seem to want to put more weight in size of program and tradition rather than matrixes like strength of schedule and records.

...and his bowl projections...

I like it too, but I don't find it accurate. I've watched enough college football this year to know that we aren't the 23rd best team in the nation. And before anyone calls me a Debbie Downer (I know, I know) I'm not down on us. We are awesome and have had an awesome year. Despite our loss in Troy in the last minute and A State destroying them, I still BELIEVE we are the best team in the Sunbelt and would beat either of the at The Rock or on a neutral field.

But personally I think we'd get hammered by FSU, VT or A&M. All teams "ranked" behind us in this.

And Miami is 13 spots below at #36. Ok.
