Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 19, 2016, 7:21 a.m.

Overall Rationale: The methodology behind this is that it goes from a predictive poll to a
retroactive poll over the course of the season as more games are played.
I know the idea of leaving in 1-2 teams is controversial (see OU,
Mississippi), but if the two teams you've played are teams like Ohio
State and Houston, I see no problem with doing it, and I reward teams
who play tough schedules even if they lose.
