Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 15, 2019, 7:13 a.m.

Overall Rationale: First submission of the season. Shower me in downvotes. I too am troubled by the number of SEC teams in the top 10. But I'm having a hard time filtering them out without resorting to outright shenanigans. The good thing is that, over the season, it will mostly sort itself out. Homerism alert - I have Florida at 28. My "Nice Team of the Week" is Vandy at 69.
