noahthearc Ballot for 2017 Week 9

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Oct. 23, 2017, 11:08 p.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Alabama Crimson Tide
2 TCU Horned Frogs
3 Penn State Nittany Lions
4 Georgia Bulldogs
5 Wisconsin Badgers
6 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Stomping USC will help the Irish in a bid for the playoffs, but they have to survive the gauntlet ahead, yet. 
7 Clemson Tigers
8 Miami Hurricanes Miami may be undefeated, but its by the grace of some divinity. Just a +12 over their last three victories (2 home, 1 away) to teams with a combined .500 record. Clemson sneaks in front simply based on their 3 quality victories.
9 Oklahoma Sooners The loss over Iowa State doesn't seem so bad with each week that passes, especially if the Cyclones shock TCU, but the Sooners have looked uncertain to say the least since that loss. They've scraped victories, but the Sooners need to find that team that took down Ohio State in September, again. 
10 UCF Knights UCF has a win over a ranked opponent (a 40-13 beatdown of Memphis), another good victory at Navy 31-21 this week, and no losses. The Knights are still a bit of a question mark until they play a P5 opponent, but my hopes are high. 
11 Virginia Tech Hokies
12 Ohio State Buckeyes No key wins yet, although everyone expects the Buckeyes to make some noise eventually. This week could be their time to regain their status at the top as Penn State comes to town. 
13 Oklahoma State Cowboys No huge 
14 NC State Wolfpack
15 Michigan State Spartans
16 USF Bulls
17 Washington State Cougars
18 Washington Huskies
19 Stanford Cardinal
20 Texas A&M Aggies
21 Iowa State Cyclones
22 Memphis Tigers
23 West Virginia Mountaineers
24 USC Trojans
25 Auburn Tigers
