Texas A&M vaulted in the rankings after beating SC in week 1 ... they then would lose to the Ole Miss/Miss St clubs inherently propping up their SOS ... the preseason poll serves as a foundation to this ... that is the first wag to determine who has an inside track on the playoffs and why it will be very difficult for a team like TCU to start unranked and make it .. they will spend time fighting and clawing to climb in the rankings while many teams who may or may not be as good merely need to win to hold their spots for all intents and purposes ... you fail to see the point. These things all feed into which teams deserve to be in ... there are 120+ teams to evaluate, the polls from preseason on are huge in this system whether you like it that way or not. [/QUOTE]
