SmokingCricket Ballot for 2016 Week 7

Ballot Type: Hybrid

Submitted: Oct. 10, 2016, 3:18 p.m.

Overall Rationale: I use a modified version of a composite of various major computer and human polls (the Massey Composite), with preferential weights given to undefeated teams (with Alabama remaining #1 until they lose as past champion), head-to-head victors (if appropriate), and a "hot streak" factor (play well? get promoted slightly). Special note goes to NDSU, who will remain at #25 until they lose, and even then I may keep ranking them there as a nod to their status in FCS.
