They should re-evaluate every team every week instead of just leaving everyone in order except the teams that lost the last week.

You can't know it's a huge game by the rankings. Look at Cal. Two Saturday's ago, they were ranked top five in the country. If the Oregon and USC games had been switched around on the calender, it would have looked like a big game. Now, Cal has been blown out 72-6 in back to back games and can't even get a vote for top 25. The rankings would make you think Florida vs. Boise St. is a huge game but realistically, Florida would be favored by 25 in such a matchup.
