It's no coincidence that the people taking issue with it are Oklahoma and LSU fans.

Maybe Stanford ends up at #1, but in all honesty I don't know how anyone could put them at #1 right now when Oklahoma and LSU have both had huge quality wins. And I'm not a fan of either.

Stanford has played San Jose St, Duke and Arizona. One absolutely terrible team, one terrible team and one average team on the road.
OU has played one average team and one very good team on the road.
LSU has played one good team on a neutral site, one absolutely terrible team and one above average team on the road.

How does Stanford bypass either OU or LSU when both those teams have better wins.
