Computers still love Michigan

Sagarin has Michigan at #5.


Penn State still at #6, so remember, computers don't look at wins and losses the same way human voters do.

That’s a good step up; too bad it doesn’t mean a thing.

I guess it means if Michigan wins out they’ll be in the Final Four.

Probably. 538 says 92% chance if we win out. I guess that 8% includes ND winning out and 3 other conf. champs looking better than us. Seems to me that should be lower than 8%.

I hope no Spartans on the board get too offended that Gulo automatically assumed by "rival" you meant OSU.

That shit generally tends to really piss them off...

Yep! Then they go looking for chips to place on their shoulder.

seems like the dumbass human pollsters are doing everything they can to get two SEC teams in, although since LSU still has to play Bama, I don't see that working out, unless Bama goes undefeated, then loses a close game to UGA in the SEC championship.

That is why moving it to 8 games can eliminate all the bias maybe .. can?t wait till the playoffs expand .

The committee sucks.

Any one of the flawed BCS formulas, expanded to include the top four, would be less biased and superior to the committee.

Six more computer polls made by random nerds that all have Michigan in the 4-8 range.
