Against teams that finished top 10

Michigan is 39-114-5

 

The main issue with this method is teams you beat tend to drop in the polls.

Don't ever trust school info in rankings

Schools get it mostly correct, but really don't spend a lot of time on rankings.  I see some messy stuff in media guides.  Recording "rankings" is not their number one priority and is often done after the fact.
