Re: Simple: as more games are played, the polls become more reflective of reality.

I think the opinions of sports writers and coaches in determining who the best teams are should be minimized as much as possible. It's a fool's errand to think that opinion polls are going to accurately determine who the best team is. I understand that implementing a system similar to the NFL is probably not possible, but I do think that's a much more accurate way of determining who the best team is. Additionally, under the current system the best teams can easily be eliminated from even competing for a national championship if they have more than 2 or 3 losses. The system is not capable of determining who is the best team on the day of the national championship game. I think it could be argued that in 1992 a 3 loss ND team was the best team in the country by the end of the year.
