In a competition, there are two clear favorites and then some other garbage. One of the favorites has to take a loss. When this happens, the other competitors cannot be moved ahead of the loser simply because of the loss. See example for correct application of said theory.
Per Colin Cowherd:
I would still rank Alabama and LSU 1 and 2 after this weekend if the game is close. Just because one of these teams has to take a loss doesn’t mean that the other undefeated teams out there are suddenly better. It’s like a beauty contest where there are two clear favorites and another girl has a dead tooth. The results are announced and one hot girl edges the other. Does that mean that you drop the loser below the girl with the DEAD TOOTH?!?!?! NO!!! And Oklahoma State, Boise State, and Oregon all have a dead tooth. It’s the Dead Tooth Theory.

Get the Buck-Toothed Bitchmug. The male act of taking the index finger and thumb placed at the base of the penis. The male then goes from base to head increasing pressure towards the tip. This act will get the remaining cum from the penis after ejaculation. The remaining ejaculate will ooze on finger and is to be slung on your partner.

Get the Tooth Paste Tubingmug. The blue tooth finger is the obnoxious finger raised by an individual engaged in a phone conversation on their blue tooth headset. It generally occurs when an innocent bystander happens upon the blue tooth talker but cannot see the blue tooth device. The bystander unwittingly responds to the phone talker who then raises the blue tooth finger indicating that they are on the phone and not speaking to innocent bystander. The bystander thereafter feels a strange combination of embarrassment and anger.
Tom: I thought some guy at the grocery store today was talking to me. I responded to something he said, but then realized he was on the phone when he gave me the blue tooth finger.
Ed: That’s embarrassing. Were other people around?
Tom: Yeah. Plus, he gave me a dirty look like I should have known he had that stupid thing in his ear.
