Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 17, 2017, 9:01 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Life has been very busy for a few weeks. First it was the national meeting of the American Chemical Society (where I presented), then it was preparing for evacuation and evacuation for Irma. I haven't watched as much this year, and this is my first poll of the year...I'm ashamed, but I can move on with it. Unlike previous years, I don't have a preseason poll to go off of and slowly ween myself off of, but it is what it is. I'm going off of what I've seen and the matchups there have been. 
Rank | Team | Reason |

Monsters. |
2 |
![]() |
Best schedule so far, dominating most opponents, and absolutely solid performance on both sides of the ball. |
3 |
![]() |
Not as good as last year, but they don't have to be to remain third. |
4 |
![]() |
They are ridiculous, and if they were Oklahoma with their performance so far they would be top-2. They aren't actually quite that good, but they are still excellent. |
5 |
![]() |
I really hate the way Franklin is handling his wins over Pitt (among others), but they are good. |
6 |
![]() |
Lincoln Riley has done an incredible job. |
7 |
![]() |
Lots of potential, underperforming, but still primed to explode. |
8 |
![]() |
The UF win is of uncertain significance, so far, but they look excellent. |

Fundamentally sound. |

They are sneaky good. Watch for them. |

I can't believe they're doing this well, and I totally believe they could continue to rise. |

They deserve to be ahead of OSU on record, and it might even be a close game, but I'm not sure yet. |
16 |
![]() |
They shouldn't be sniffing the top ten yet. |

0-1 is a bad record. I still believe they could do really well this year, so they're ranked....But still. |
23 |
![]() |
Biased, but I believe we are going to do well the next couple weeks and I want to be ahead of the curve. |
