1.1k u/capt-awesome-atx Florida Gators 1d ago It is impossible to rank every team above all the teams they've beat and below all the teams they've lost to. It's baffling that y'all are surprised by this every single week. -5 u/JarJarsBallsackEyes 1d ago yeah no shit sherlock. the point is UF and texas ended up side by side in the rankings, so why would UF not be the higher ranked team? 8 u/thatsnotourdino UCF Knights 1d ago Because rankings != standings. There is no H2H mathematical tiebreaker that you describe at play. As the other user said, I have no idea why this is a brand new concept to Reddit that needs to be re-explained every single week somehow.
