Here is one ranking system that seems to value all 130 0-0 records exactly the same before any FB is played and then rank teams strictly by merit and accomplishment once play begins : www.marsee.net/19rnk.txtThis seems more fair to me.

Hard to evaluate without knowing the methodology. What factors are considered "merit and accomplishment"

What factors are considered "merit and accomplishment" Don't know his methodology but there doesn't seem to be any free head starts based on name brand reputation, past performance , recruiting/ perceived talent or anything.

So, basically... they suspend all reality before they start. cool.
I wouldn't use them as a betting guide... not early in the season, for sure.

0-2 Miami 39 2-0 North Carolina 41 It also has SMU and Tulane ranked ahead of Texas.
I like our chances against either one of those.
