Unfortunately, rankings now are important for setting the tone for how we'll be ranked should (god forbid) we lose a game or two. If we want to keep in the BCS picture, outside of winning the Pac12, then we're going to need to be respected nationally. That being said, being in the top 6 is a-okay by me. I am of the mind set that we have a long way to go.

Some of the readers of of his blog have found some interesting inconsistencies in Wilner's logic. I thought the UGA vs GTech disparity was especially interesting:
"So Arkansas goes on the road to the number 3 team in the nation and loses and that drops them out of the top 25 from 14th? A&M loses to the number 7 team at home, and you drop them 3 spots."

" Oregon’s wins: Nevada, Missouri State (!), at Arizona
Stanford’s wins: SJSU, at Duke, at Arizona

That “quality shellacking” on a “neutral” field makes all the difference! "

"So U[sic]GA got steam rolled by Boise State and lost a game to a terrible looking USC team in week two and then go on to win their next two cupcake games and they’re ranked? How to logic that when Georgia Tech is undefeated. In week 3 Georgia Tech DESTROYED AQ opponent in week 3 and beat out undefeated UNC. "
