Quote:Agree. The basketball selection committee uses end of the season ratings (they don' care about rankings) when looking at team "resumes". Makes a lot more sense to me. Sometimes there is problems with it, like when Kentucky lost Nerlens Noel a couple years ago. Beating Kentucky when they had Noel was a much more impressive win than when he was hurt, but the ratings wouldn't reflect that. That's why it's nice to have a little human element, too, to recognize those things.

 

FSU's final ranking last year was littered with teams that WERE previously ranked.  I'm not saying they didnt deserve it, but it seems like an unfair comparison as opposed to end of year rankings.  If NCAA b-ball does it, there's no reason football shouldnt.  Then again thats rational thinking, and the NCAA is opposed to that.
