I distinctly remember TCU dropping in the polls after a 40+ point win.

I think it was 55-3. And the CFP dropped them from 3 to 6.

Texas was unranked in the AP (#28). Now they are #21.

I don't really like the idea of moving up after a loss. There are no good losses. Only losses that give you hope you may do better in the future. And ones that don't.

Agreed. I think it’s equally silly to move a team up after losing and moving the team that beat them down after winning.

It's an understandable idea as long as it applies to everyone and not just certain teams.

Thats not possible, honestly.

Alabama and Georgia are in a class of their own and have been for a while. There is not a single team that any reasonable person will say "should" beat Alabama that isn't named Georgia.
