I didn't expect people to get all worked up over a poll ballot in week 6, but I probably should have realized that it was coming. In recognition that it's probably too early in the season yet to go 100% on stats since some teams have only three (USF) or four (Florida, et. al.) games against I-A teams, I'm goingto do some more curating to my half of the ballot. Consider this morning's post a draft.
- Florida
- Alabama
- Virginia Tech
- Texas
- Iowa
- TCU
- LSU
- Oregon
- Ohio State
- Boise State
- Miami (FL)
- USC
- Notre Dame
- Nebraska
- Cincinnati
- Kansas
- BYU
- USF
- Pittsburgh
- South Carolina
- Penn State
- Oklahoma
- Auburn
- Georgia Tech
- Utah
Changes:
- Bama above VT, for obvious reasons.
- Texas above Iowa, since Texas looks better on week-to-week basis.
- LSU up to 7: shouldn't be penalized too much for losing to No. 1.
- Miami up to 11: for some nice wins.
- USC up to 12 and Oklahoma down to 22: in recognition of wins and losses.
- South Carolina at 20; CMU out: SC is a better 5-1 team.
Any other complaints? If not, then this'll go final.
