Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 25, 2017, 1:26 p.m.

Overall Rationale: Note: I have decided not to consider Miami or FSU, given that they have only played two games and I feel that neither schedule is conducive to seeing the team's talent. I expect to look more closely at both next week and no longer be "penalizing" them by week 7.
