Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. . . or behind the BCS polls at least

The Bowl Championship Series is broken down into three components (Harris Poll, USA Today Poll, & the six computer polls) to determine the two teams playing for the national championship. If these are the components that breakdown the BCS, then the typical questions from the majority of college fans would be what are the six computer rankings, who are the people from the Harris Poll, & which coaches are from the USA Today Coaches Poll? Out of three components, the six computer polls is the only component that doesn’t play any bias factors, provides tons of math equations, no influence on opinions or assumptions, or margin of victory. Anderson & Hester, Richard Billingsley, Jeff Sagarin, Colley Matrix, Kenneth Massey, & Dr. Peter Wolfe are the six computer polls who provide a major significance in determining the two teams playing for the national championship.
