Overall Rationale: * Note: Ole Miss is supposed to be at #22, but the poll site gave me no option... https://imgur.com/a/zhu7aVZA poll that utilizes and heavily rewards winning%, performance against top 10/30 teams, a positive net margin on average point margin (to help decrease weight of cupcake games). Utilizes data from Sagarin's rankings and ESPN offense/defense stats.
