How upset is Wisky and Northwestern?

Since we don't have much to complain about regarding the latest CFP rankings, and we control our destiny, I felt a need to question something regarding the CFP!


Stanford
8-2
#11 CFP
Losses:
#23 Oregon 38-36
#20 Northwestern 16-6


Northwestern
8-2
#20 CFP
Losses:
#12 Michigan 38-0
#5 Iowa 40-10


Wisconsin
8-2
#25 CFP
Losses:
#2 Alabama 35-17
#5 Iowa 10-6


Why is Northwestern ranked 9 spots behind Stanford, when they BEAT Stanford, and Northwestern's losses are to much better teams? It must be because Northwestern's two losses were so lopsided?


A better question is why is Wisky ranked 14 places behind Stanford, when Wisky's only two losses were to the #2 and #5 ranked teams?


Eyeball test? To make sure Stanford ends up in the Top 12 for at least a New Year's 6 Bowl if they win the Pac 10, whether or not they lose to Notre Dame?


I would love for Jeff Long be asked THIS question!

Wisky should be real upset. They are probably the best 2 loss team in the nation and a heavy favorite against NW this weekend.
 
Wisconsin has 0 wins against teams with winning records. If Baylor loses this week they should be where Wisconsin is right now.
