You guys have a chance to make a statement with your rankings; a chance to differentiate yourselves from the talking heads at ESPN and come up with something that makes sense. However, you blew that chance by including Boise State in your top 16 - no less, at #14 ahead of two teams that would beat them handily. Just because teams lose a game or two doesn't mean they aren't a better team than some undefeated team from the MAC, WAC, Sun Belt, or the like. Auburn, Nebraska, Georgia Tech, and several other teams would have no trouble beating Boise State up and down the field. I could take a group of friends into San Jose State and win by more than a field goal.
