If BYU beat USF and Toledo, they'd likely be ranked in the AP. But they clearly aren't one of the best 25 teams
and a couple of extra points vs USF and Toledo doesn't really change that.

Top 25 is really not the 25 best teams. It's the 25 team's with the best season.

Well, it really should be the best 25 teams. Otherwise, why not just get a bunch of W-L records in a spreadsheet

Except people don't approach them with that logic. They use simple logic:

It's a combination really. Is a 9-3 season in the MW better than an 8-4 season

Losing and winning matter more than the overall quality of the team.

Using that logic you can essentially just rank teams based on recruiting classes

So who should be #1 the S&P #1 team or the National Champ? Or if you want to back off that a bit

Yep. People keep thinking rankings are that. They measure win streaks.

It would be interesting to see how much of a bump we'd get in Massey composite
