Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 15, 2019, 5:08 p.m.
Overall Rationale: It was an uneventful week at the top, and most of my ballot looks very similar to last week, so I didn't feel a need to write much in the way of explanations. Big movers were Maryland (drops out of ballot), UCF (+6), Michigan State (drops out of ballot from 21), and K State (enters ballot at 21).

| 7 |  Auburn Tigers | +0 | 
| 8 |  UCF Knights | UCF could have scored 60 or 70 easily if they didn't take their foot way off the gas at halftime. +6 |

| 18 |  Texas A&M Aggies | +2 | 
| 19 |  Virginia Cavaliers | +0 | 
| 20 |  Iowa Hawkeyes | +2. Good win against Iowa State, and lots of teams around them had bad games. | 
| 21 |  Kansas State Wildcats | Kansas State enters my ballot for the first time this season after a solid win against Mississippi State. | 
| 22 |  Baylor Bears | +3 on a bye, mostly due to other teams falling. | 
| 23 |  Oklahoma State Cowboys | Their win yesterday was very unimpressive, and I wanted to move them down, but everyone around them lost. +0 | 
| 24 |  Boise State Broncos | Boise State enters my ranking for the first time this season. | 
| 25 |  Temple Owls | Temple enters my ranking for the first time this season after an impressive win against Maryland. Was it a fluke, or is Temple for real? We'll find out soon! |
