Caedus Ballot for 2016 Week 2

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 6, 2016, 9:32 p.m.

Overall Rationale: I normally don't do polls until Week 4, but this week was too entertaining not to take a stab at it. Don't take this one too seriously.

Rank Team Reason
1 Alabama Crimson Tide
2 Clemson Tigers
3 Florida State Seminoles
4 Houston Cougars Cougars beat the Sooners. Ohio State and Michigan beat creampuffs (though I might be selling Bowling Green short). Ranking Houston over OSU was tough since the Buckeyes looked amazing in their blowout...but at the end of the day I think Preseason Polls are stupid so it's weird to be to keep OSU at 4 and Houston at 5 just because a Preseason Poll had them ranked higher at the start. 
5 Ohio State Buckeyes
6 Michigan Wolverines
7 Stanford Cardinal
8 Georgia Bulldogs
9 Washington Huskies
10 Michigan State Spartans
11 Iowa Hawkeyes
12 Oklahoma Sooners
13 TCU Horned Frogs
14 Wisconsin Badgers
15 Louisville Cardinals
16 Texas Longhorns
17 Ole Miss Rebels
18 Tennessee Volunteers The entire #17-#19 rankings had me thinking for a while. I really punished Tennessee here, as the only reason they really won was because the Appalachian State coach went full Andy Reid..., but I thought pushing them to #19 was a bit drastic. However I felt Ole Miss's play was much better in their loss. OK State is the odd man out, which I feel uncomfortable with...but whatever. 
19 Oklahoma State Cowboys
20 LSU Tigers
21 Oregon Ducks
22 Notre Dame Fighting Irish
23 Texas A&M Aggies
24 Baylor Bears
25 Miami Hurricanes
