GilBrandt Ballot for 2016 Final

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Jan. 10, 2017, 12:33 p.m.

Overall Rationale: What a great season! Well except for the whole part of me being a Texas A&M fan and them bringing me eternal disappointment. Congratulations Clemson and see y'all next season where I will get my hopes up again only for them to be dashed most expertly by Sumlin and the Aggies.

Rank Team Reason
1 Clemson Tigers Wow one of the best championships I've ever seen! Also your kicker was clutch with that onside kick and recover. I did not give you enough credit when I ranked you 4 last poll.
2 Alabama Crimson Tide I'm truly surprised because this was looking like the best team I've ever seen at Alabama, and maybe it still is. For all I know Alabama wins 7/10 match ups with Clemson because I still believe this is a crazy talented team, but that's all hypothetical and you lost this lone time.
3 USC Trojans
4 Washington Huskies
5 Penn State Nittany Lions
6 Oklahoma Sooners
7 Florida State Seminoles
8 Oklahoma State Cowboys Glad one of the teams I follow did well in their bowl game! ...curse you A&M
9 Ohio State Buckeyes I'm sure y'all have heard it a bunch, but I was one of the people who thought you didn't deserve to be in the playoffs in the first place. Do I think you get blown-out every time vs Clemson? No, but I believe it should have been a team like Penn St instead.
10 Michigan Wolverines
11 Wisconsin Badgers
12 Western Michigan Broncos Great job WMU! You didn't win, but you didn't look terrible either and you had an amazing season. Sorry about losing Fleck
13 Colorado Buffaloes
14 Florida Gators
15 Stanford Cardinal
16 LSU Tigers
17 Virginia Tech Hokies
18 Miami Hurricanes
19 USF Bulls
20 Tulsa Golden Hurricane
21 WKU Hilltoppers
22 West Virginia Mountaineers
23 Louisiana Tech Bulldogs
24 Tennessee Volunteers
25 San Diego State Aztecs
