Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Aug. 14, 2017, 10:26 p.m.

Overall Rationale: Based on results from last year, returning starters, and how I think they will do. My one rule was that I wouldn't pick a team that had a losing record last year, so sorry Notre Dame and Texas. Some of my matchups to watch are Bama vs FSU, WVU vs VT and UM vs UF. Looking forward to a great season of college football.
