Here it is, folks. The real top 25, not some AP or Coaches Poll bullsh*t. I see more games than probably all those bozos and being the expert I am, I have full right and knowledge to post a true top 25. No playing favorites, no politics.

**You lose, you drop 7 automatic spots. If it works out where the team that just beat you ends up ranked 1 spot behind you, it flip-flops.**

I do not know how you do it TAE. Penn State 6-1 and beat Ohio State, Minnesota, and Northwestern. The one game they did lose was to Michigan by two points at the big house. Do you seriously think Toledo, Virginia, Louisville, TCU, or Fresno would beat them.

You don't know how I do it. Maybe you should read the post.

He has a method of doing his Top 25. He goes by his own system. You can't ridicule what he does because he has a system that he goes by. I believe he's saying that this is what the NCAA needs to do. However, I disagree. As everyone on here is saying, PSU would be that far down on his list. They are definitely a top team in the nation right now. Even though, they just lost a bad Michigan team.

They're clearly a top team. But my system allows alot of movement to be made within one week. I was late ina dding Texas Tech too, and they have jumped 4 to 5 places every week. That's just the benefits of this system, and by no means is this flawless or the system that should be used, it's just really my own experiment. I tweaked it from last year. It's a work in progress.

The thing is, if PSU wins, they will obviously be in my top 25 again. They are obviously the first team to go back in, so they are 26th. They'll probably finish up the season around 10th in my rankings if they win their games. When I drop teams an automatic 7 (used to be 10) it gives a lot of teams more opportunities to shift around. By no means is PSU NOT a top 25 team, they just ended up being 19th and lost.
