TheOrangeKush81 Ballot for 2017 Week 5

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 25, 2017, 12:03 a.m.

Overall Rationale: A few thoughts I'm having before making my poll:1. Penn State's win at Iowa impressed the hell out of me. That was clutch as hell and I think that Barkley guy might be good at football one day. 2. I am (rightfully) skeptical as hell about Georgia but they're really starting to look good.3. The mullet has been defeated.4. I'm not going to rank vandy, but losing to Alabama 59-0 at home doesn't mean that a team shouldn't be ranked. That's how huge the talent gap is between the Alabamas of the world and those teams from 20ish to 30ish. That a team could literally lose 59-0 at home and still be better than 100 other FBS teams. I don't feel like this is much of a hot take but maybe it is idk.5. 4-0 is much more impressive than 3-0; the field of undefeated teams is becoming thin.

Rank Team Reason
1 Clemson Tigers I'll say it again: the tigers have the best defense in the country. 
2 Alabama Crimson Tide Obviously there's not more than one team that I actually think is better than bama right now.
3 Washington Huskies
4 Penn State Nittany Lions They're making a huge leap because they were clutch as hell at iowa and have a somewhat talented running back
5 Wisconsin Badgers I like their brand of football.
6 Oklahoma Sooners Baylor spanks back, huh?
7 Virginia Tech Hokies I've decided that Virginia tech is probably this good. I like their brand of football too.
8 USC Trojans
9 Georgia Bulldogs I feel dirty, buying into Georgia hype like this. Like just another fucking r/CFB sheep. But here I am, putting them in my top 10.
10 Michigan Wolverines
11 TCU Horned Frogs TCU has rocketed up lately. 
12 Utah Utes
13 Oklahoma State Cowboys
14 Ohio State Buckeyes I almost forgot about THE ohio state university while compiling my ballot, but in the end, I membered
15 Mississippi State Bulldogs
16 West Virginia Mountaineers I accidentally left them out last week. My fuckin bad
17 Louisville Cardinals
18 Washington State Cougars I watched their boise state game and wasn't impressed at all. But here I am ranking them.
19 San Diego State Aztecs
20 Miami Hurricanes Not much info on them. Just goin on gut feel, ja feel?
21 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets They're gonna fuck with some teams this year
22 Auburn Tigers I've moved auburn down quite a bit because the more I think about them the less confidence I have in them. They have a chance to change my mind this week, tho.
23 USF Bulls
24 Florida Gators Florida may be disaster but they've got elite talent and a whole lotta luck and most teams have very little of either
25 Wake Forest Demon Deacons Clemson only beat Boston College by 3 more points than did Wake.
