CFB rankings

CBS writer Barrett Sallee's take on the initial rankings:

Overrated -- The Big Ten West
Head-to-head results obviously matter since Wisconsin is above Iowa, but should either of those teams -- or Minnesota -- even be considered. Not at this point. Iowa's offensive flaws are irreparable, Wisconsin has three losses and Minnesota lost to Bowling Green.These three are in while UTSA, Houston, SMU, Louisiana and Coastal Carolina aren't? Nope. There's no sales job in the world that would make me buy that kind of nonsense.

It's almost like ... and just hear me out ... the committee is trying to prop up the Big Ten as much as possible in order for one of its powers to find its way in. Just a thought.

I agree, Charleston Pony.

The distance between Cincinnati vs. SMU/Houston/UTSA/Coastal is smaller than the distance between many of the Big Ten West or Big 12 or ACC teams. If the Bearcats are Top 6, then these schools are Top 25.
