rmp0005 Ballot for 2019 Week 4
Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 15, 2019, 4:51 p.m.
Overall Rationale: 1)    I got a little excited with Michigan State and Maryland last week, perhaps. Aside from those two, not a whole lot of change in the upper half of the rankings, some jostling here and there.    2)    UCF is obviously a very polarizing team and one that I'm probably ranking a little higher than average. I do think they will have a chance to back that ranking up and even continue to rise. While certainly not marquee match-ups, I want to see how they fare against Pitt/Cincy/Houston/Temple because we can then at least compare their performance to those of some of the upper-tier P5s. Because - let's be honest with ourselves - is their schedule really that much worse than Clemson's?    3)   My biggest challenge this week was where to slot the not-as-impressive-but-still-undefeated teams. I like UVA, I like WSU, they share best wins with Penn State and Oklahoma respectively. They both see top 10 opponents this month and I'm very excited to see what they can do.
