Ballot Type: Human

Overall Rationale: I'm sure I'll be one of the few teams who ranked Iowa State. If you watched the game you saw a game that was very different from the score. Iowa State is still a good team despite being 1-1. I almost included Arizona State but chose to reward TCU for a dominant win over a good team. I am very surprised with how many Big XII teams I included. I expected to only include three or four coming in but as I got to the bottom I realized there really weren't better options.
