Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Sept. 4, 2018, 10:49 a.m.
Overall Rationale: This is a computer poll that begins each season with a clean slate for all FBS teams. This is not a predictive poll but purely a meret based poll that looks at the quality of each win in comparison to the rest of field.Because it starts clean each season, it generally takes 4-5 weeks before it really begins to show accurate results. 
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Hawai'i Rainbow Warriors | Hawaii leads all teams with 2 FBS wins while no one else has more than 1.They will likely have a stop spot in my poll until they lose or until a few weeks have passed and my system is better at recognizing who has better wins.  |

3 | Ohio State Buckeyes | |
4 | Arizona State Sun Devils | |
