Ok then, explain to me how the team with the highest ranked win this bowl season (minus the NC game) drops 2 spots?

I just think OSU and Stanford are better. I think Alabama is actually the fifth best team in the country but I can't rank them that high because they did lose 3.

They aren't dropping if you didn't have them up there to begin with. I've had TCU behind Wisconsin, Stanford, and Ohio State in every one of "my own" top tens. I could move them ahead of Stanford and they'd be moving up, even though they'd still be behind Stanford and Ohio State. One Buckeye may not be basing his rankings off what any poll had last week, but off who he actually feels are the best teams. There is still room to debate TCU as it relates to the 1-loss teams (although I'll admit, I'm hesitant to put them above anyone other than maybe Auburn if the Tigers happen to lose the title game now).

TCU has the highest ranked win this bowl season outside of the NC game. They are in the top 2.

Eh, sorry. TCU will be ranked highly at the end but that doesn't mean I or anyone has to agree with it.

In the current system we have, TCU went undefeated and beat a top 5 team in a BCS bowl. That is deserving of the #2 ranking. I think some people confusing seeding with ranking. At the end of the season, out of what the team showed, they are the #2 team. That does not mean that if there was a tourney how they would finish, nor does it mean where they should be seeded in a tourney. Just that they went into a BCS bowl and beat the #5 Big Ten Conference Co-Champ.

Some people feel that a path lined with rose petals and baby powder along with Bielema shitting the bed miserably in the bowl game produces a different mindset come the end of the season.

So if Bielema was outcoached then..... TCU had the better overall team?

You are just making excuses to not rank them high. I am not a TCU fan at all. I am just giving them credit where credit is due.

YOU can call them whatever you want excuses, quantifiable facts, I really don't care. Point is I don't think they're deserving of that high a ranking. Just my opinion, trying to convince me otherwise is just going to be a fruitless endeavor on your part.
