Khavanon Ballot for 2017 Week 5
Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 24, 2017, 11:11 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Computer poll should come out after week 6. Dropping out: Florida State (Just two games, but I have no idea what we've got here. They have plenty of time to work their way back in), Mississippi State (Well, that was short lived), Kentucky (I believed in you guys! You can still get back in).
