UNI at #3 is ridiculous.  Their best win is against Iowa state who is 1-8.  And UNI at #3 unfairly boosts the rest of the MVFC.  hard to believe anyone would take Sagarin  ratings seriously.

So if " It isn't how we would seed it today or a week from now or two weeks from now", then it is just another irrelevant poll.  Why should we even care about it if the playoff bracket comes out?

the only advantage I can see is at least this way, there's a chance for some more conversation with the committee ahead of time, and hopefully a more educated decision can be made by the committee when the bracket is set.

It's funny that so many conferences use this rating in their tie breaking procedures for the Auto-bid (not sure how many actually use it, but I know Big Sky and Missouri Valley both do)

The main reason they began putting out the TOP TEN so early is to begin early discussions and give FCS some "Press" time and let the Blogs have something to talk about.

Committee clickbait isn't noble.

Being #10 right now is huge. With the Sam Houston State move, it looks like the committee actually gave some thought to the rankings this week. Just keep winning. Being ahead of SDSU at this point is big.
