Default Re: ***Official End of week 13 NCAAF Rank\'em***

Coaches Poll:
1. West Virgina (37 1st place, 1467 points)
2. Missouri (17, 1454)
3. Ohio State (6, 1383)
4. Georgia (1232)
5. VTech (1161)
5. Kansas (1161)
7. LSU (1134)
8. OU (1126)

WVU had more 1st place votes, but also more votes at 3rd or lower (compared to Missouri). OSU got 6 first place votes (as opposed to none in the AP), with everyone else pretty much putting them in 3rd. Georgia's a distant 4th with the next four all getting within 35 points of the same total.

Sagarin has his rankings as:
(1) Missouri
(2) West Virginia
(3) Kansas
(4) Virginia Tech
(5) Ohio State
(6) Georgia
(7) Boston College
(8) LSU
(9) Florida
(10) USC

Of course, the "real" Sagarin rankings (which don't just use W/L, have Oklahoma #1. :-)

One more note is that Oklahoma gains nothing in the computer rankings if they beat Missouri. They've already beaten them, so just using W/L, it doesn't help OU at all. Not that they have a chance to win the NC, but still a flaw in the system (as someone else noted earlier in the year).
