Probably. Blame the system. When you make point differential & strength of schedule count for so much in the rankings, it's really no wonder that fans start taking it into account when talking smack. Until there's a valid playoff system (probably never), such is NCAA Div 1-A football. i'm pretty sure that point differential is out of the computer rankings in the BCS, but it certainly influences the department secretaries who fill out the Coaches Poll ballots
