Ballot Type: Computer

Submitted: Oct. 30, 2016, 7:25 p.m.

Overall Rationale: This has the same rationale as previous weeks, however this model has been tweaked to have some recency bias. Therefore, performances from this week and the past week will be weighted much higher than performances in week one. In my old model, it wouldn't matter whether the game was played in August or November, it counted the same.
