Overall Rationale
I know dropping Florida out may be a mistake but I cannot justify ranking a team with 4 losses right now. I am high on Michigan State, North Carolina, Nebraska, Arkansas, Tennessee, Virginia, Georgia, and Seton Hall. I am low on Houston, Alabama, Texas Tech, Florida, and Oklahoma State.
