jmac_21 Ballot for 2018 Week 4

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 17, 2018, 8:33 a.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Alabama Crimson Tide No surprise here. Bama is unreal.
2 Georgia Bulldogs I had Georgia here last week. After another blowout I see no reason to change this.
3 Clemson Tigers Clemson Stays at 3 for me. Another blowout.
4 Oklahoma Sooners I'm interested to see where OU lands this week for people. Iowa State played one of their better games against OU. OU could never really pull away, Iowa State had a few huge plays that kept them in it. I don't think OU should drop, but I will assume they'll be dropped by most.
5 Ohio State Buckeyes They probably did enough to jump some teams by most metrics. They beat a ranked team on prime time television. I just struggle to make them jump much as it took 3 turnovers and 2 non offensive touchdowns and a lot of favorable calls to beat TCU by 12. I'm gonna keep OSU at 5 for now, but they'll move if they keep winning.
6 LSU Tigers Huge road comeback for LSU. That was a sweet win. They jumped 6 spots for me as the people ahead of them didn't do anything to special.
7 Stanford Cardinal Stanford only won by 20 against a weak opponent, but that's just their style seemingly. 
8 Virginia Tech Hokies VT didn't play this week, stupid hurricane.
9 Notre Dame Fighting Irish ND hasn't been very impressive so far, but they'll hang in the top 10 for me.
10 Washington Huskies Utah is no easy place to win. Gotta give credit to the Huskies for pulling it off.
11 Auburn Tigers Auburn lost on a last second field goal by LSU. Was a sweet game. Auburn will bounce back.
12 West Virginia Mountaineers I would have really liked to see WVU play this weekend, stupid hurricane.
13 Penn State Nittany Lions Penn State destroyed their opponent. They're gonna move up really quick when they get into the meat of their schedule.
14 Oklahoma State Cowboys Oklahoma State makes a huge jump after demolishing Boise State. They are the real deal. 
15 UCF Knights Another hurricane postponed game :(
16 Mississippi State Bulldogs MSU beat up on a bad opponent. Good win for them though.
17 TCU Horned Frogs TCU fought really hard. Probably could have won with even a decently played second half. RIP Frog Bois. 
18 Michigan Wolverines Michigan beat up on SMU this weekend. Hopefully the Wolverines have their offense worked out with conference play approaching.
19 Oregon Ducks Oregon got jumped by Michigan for me this week. San Jose State is an awful awful team and Oregon didn't just kill them. Expected to see the offense really excel against a team like that. 
20 Wisconsin Badgers Make no mistake, that was a bad bad loss by Wisconsin. I just don't see a whole lot of special talent on that team. They're just pretty okay. They have a shot to win out and prove me and everyone else wrong though.
21 Miami Hurricanes A lot of people, including myself, thought Toledo could give Miami some trouble, but the Hurricanes took care of Business. 
22 Texas A&M Aggies A&M unfortunately finds themselves in the direct fire of the giant frickin' laser beam that is Bama football. 
23 Boston College Eagles BC is just a bunch of Guys Being Dudes. Stood strong against the onslaught that Wake Forrest came at them with.
24 Iowa Hawkeyes I'll admit, I don't love Iowa's style, but they just keep winning football games.
25 Boise State Broncos BSU found themselves in a frenzy of touchdowns in Stillwater Oklahoma. RIP to the blue bois. I still think they're a solid team.
