Every move by  UCF AD Danny White is brilliant and will be proven right in the long term.

Proven right about what in the long term? That makes no sense ..... unsurprisingly.

He's had a few too many Ambiens today...

Looking back at the original rankings. So Texas Tech, Arizona, and UCLA are better than any team in the American. Despite all these teams losing to American teams last year. Baylor is 9 spots higher than the top American team. They were 1-11 in 2017 with a lone win over a Kansas team that has 1 FBS victory since 2014. Heck, Kansas is actually ranked over teams like SMU who would probably be double digit favorites in a head to head. Not sure who compiles this ranking or what the inputs are, but they seem highly questionable. 

Want to bet the rankings are driving tons of clicks and comments and controversy?

The inputs are questionable by design, in order to produce the above outputs...

You actually nailed it with this earlier post on this thread

The FPI is basically garbage. Duke ranked 20-40 spots ahead of 3 ranked AAC teams. I don’t even know what they base 2018 numbers on before a game is played. Recruiting?

It's a useless poll for this time of year and it makes perfect sense that the buffoon Matt Baker tries to weave an article around it now ...

We all know the game is rigged at every level by the P5. I'm not sure you can call it media bias when the media are just blatant house organs for the P5 conferences. It basically comes down to "they are no good because we have declared them no good and despite results they will remain in the no good class and no opportunity to move will be provided." It's a legal American caste system.
