The old Sagarin rankings show that SEC bias is still very real

Someone get these rankings under control!

Now that we have a College Football Playoff committee we have no need for the exorbitant amount of different ranking system and polls that the BCS used to be running the show. One of those ranking systems was the Sagarin Poll and it's fun to look it up every now and then to see just how screwy it can be.

This week is not surprisingly one of the crazier ones as Ohio State lost and Auburn got a huge win over Arkansas along with Alabama annihilating Texas A&M. Here's how the Sagarin rankings shook out and there is some serious SEC bias.

  1. Alabama
  2. Michigan
  3. Ohio State
  4. Clemson
  5. Washington
  6. Louisville
  7. Auburn
  8. LSU
  9. Texas A&M
  10. Wisconsin

Four SEC teams in the top ten? Two of them with two losses? The Sagarin rankings are clearly a little drunk midway through the season so it should be fun to see how the rest of the season shakes out in regards to these rankings, which are used to help the Playoff Committee make some decisions.
