BCS poll believes in the eye test. Bama was just the better team. Bama plays okie lite, weeden is in a body bag by halftime. Under the 4 team playoff format that's coming, the eye test is still on. Enjoy!
Honestly, it as a system itself more just believes the polls...which themselves have more of a short-term (/week-to-week) type memory (an earlier loss is of much less detriment than a later loss)
It does account for more, but through numerous revisions, it almost seems to become more a reflection of the human polls (which, personally, seem terribly suspect to influence from major sports media like ESPN, but that's another topic)
