I think the committee either shouldn't release the rankings on a weekly basis or do like polls and give "totals" to each team. That allows teams and fans to know how close a team is. For instance, Alabama can be #1 with a 300 point lead over #2 Oregon, or Alabama can only have a 15 point lead that can change with a big Oregon win.I kind of see what the guy on the selection show was saying though. TCU is #3 one week and then is #6 the next?
I think the committee needs only to vote ONCE; after the Conference Championship. All the other declarations just muddy the conversation.
I do like the fluidity of the rankings, though. We get upset with the AP or Coaches not changing their rankings from the preseason if everyone wins no matter how they played. The committee clearly does care about how well a team plays.
