They have played 7 teams and are ranked third amongst them. They have beaten five teams and are ranked ahead of them. They have lost to two and are ranked behind them. In a scale of one to eight they are number three. Within what you would call Notre Dame's conference(that being whoever they play that year) they are third ranked. Clear enough for you yet? Mississippi has the same record and the fact that they are both ranked in the top 25 to me is totally meaningless. They haven't played each other and have no common opponents. There isn't one possible reason to rate them equally or to even rank them at all. Not one. Means zilch as the poll rankings usually do. The only ranking that means anything is the teams that have played Notre Dame(or insert anyone's favorite team) and how they have done against that group.
As for "entertaining" numero uno country wide as far as I've seen. Cliff hangers week after week after week. Exciting offense every week as well.

Well that's an interesting way to rank teams. So Florida is first among the teams they've played, my Spartans are 5th, etc. Add one to the loss total and you get your ranking, certainly a unique approach.
