The poll that has FAU at #29 is a joke. It is based on opponents rankings which makes absolutely no sense. That poll has USC at #23 and the top 8 spots are all SEC teams. FAU is higher than 4-0 Boston College and 4-0 Cal (tied for #33), 4-0 Kansas (#37), 3-1 Nebraska (#39), 3-0 USF (#46), 4-0 West Virginia (#52), 4-0 Oregon (#56), 3-0 Rutgers (#57), and 3-1 Virginia Tech (#58).
All the poll accomplishes is showing that if you use a complex enough equation anyone can be ranked high regardless of record, schedule, and on the field dominance.
