clearly defeating Chattanooga and Nevada is the 5th most impressive resume in the country.

His poll is pretty well useless until he takes the bias out in week 5 or 6

The BCS uses the Elo Chess rating a couple columns over as opposed to the rating. Not sure why exactly, but the Sagarin poll always looks weird like this early on.

There isn't a large enough sample size at this point. Not many teams in the nation have a "quality" road win. Like the others have said, until you have a large enough sample size, the numbers will be skewed.
