Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Sept. 10, 2017, 10:17 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Teams move up and down each week based on how actual MOV compares to predicted MOV. MOV is capped at 35. The number is somewhat arbitrary but 5 TDs is my subjective judgment of the point where a greater MOV doesn't really tell us anything more about how good teams really are. There is a preseason component based on last year's final rankings, returning production, recruiting rankings, and coach rankings. The preseason component will be removed halfway through the season and rankings will be recalculated with each team starting exactly equal. I am happy to answer any further questions about the poll.
