[QUOTE="CEB, post: 1002345, member: 4905"] Maybe it’s the start of a trend? Not sure the data even confirms that though… I think the only real takeaway is that the preseason and early season rankings seem to be quite biased but the course of the season largely brings things into perspective for the CFP ranking. There has not been as gross a bias as we want to believe by the time the season ends, BUT there also hasn’t been any real incentive for biased rankings beyond the Top 4 (which have been pretty cut and dried until this year). It will be interesting to see if / how that changes next year when seeds 10-12 become so much more critical than 3-5. It’s also going to be a far more subjective ranking for those 10-12 spots… the 1-4 seeds often shook out in actual matchups during conference championships. The 10-12 seeds likely will not have many (any) similar opponents or conference championships to tip the scale [/QUOTE]
