nbingham196 Ballot for 2019 Week 5

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 22, 2019, 8:04 a.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Clemson Tigers
Won easy game still
probably top 2 but we likely won't know until the playoffs
2 Alabama Crimson Tide
Won easy game still
probably top 2 but division play will show
3 Wisconsin Badgers
They made Michigan
look terrible and I don't think they are. Incredibly dominant through three
games
4 Georgia Bulldogs
Beat a good Notre
Dame team, but not by as much as I was expecting
5 Ohio State Buckeyes
Killed Miami (OH).
Conference play will also show us how good they are
6 LSU Tigers
Offense looks
incredible, defense not so much. If defense gets figured out they could upset
Bama
7 Auburn Tigers
Looked good against
A&M, never felt like they were going to lose
8 Oklahoma Sooners
I think Oklahoma is
probably better than the 8th best team, their best win however at the moment
is over a 1-3 Houston team.
9 Oregon Ducks
Beat Stanford pretty
easily in a rivalry game. Should be favorite to win Pac-12 now.
10 Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Played a closer game
to Georgia than I thought they would
11 Texas Longhorns
Got their best win of
the season with their victory over a top 35 Oklahoma State team
12 Iowa Hawkeyes
Didn't play
13 Penn State Nittany Lions
Didn't play
14 Boise State Broncos
Still looked a bit
iffy in the first half , but came back in the second half once again to beat
a pretty good Air force team. The Broncos should be heavy favorite to be the
G5 representative in the NY6 bowl
15 Florida Gators
Still looked ugly
against a pretty terrible TN team, but they won by 31. Should probably finish
2nd in the East
16 Michigan Wolverines
Did not look good at
all against Wisconsin. I think that might be more on Wisconsin than on
Michigan, but we will see
17 Texas A&M Aggies
Only lost by a
touchdown, but never really looked like they were going to win. I still think
the Aggies are one of the 25 best teams in the country despite the two losses
thus far
18 Utah Utes
Lost to a team that
they are probably better than
19 Memphis Tigers
Didn't play
20 Washington Huskies
Beat up on a BYU team
that has looked dangerous.
21 California Golden Bears
Squeaked out a win
over a mediocre Ole Miss squad. Their overall product has looked much worse than Washington so Washington is higher than them despite the head to head
22 North Dakota State Bison
Last week I had NDSU
at 25 because I didn't think there were 25 teams deserving of being ranked.
This week I feel like only 21 teams deserve to be ranked so NDSU moves up to
22. They had their best win of the season beating FCS #4 UC Davis and still
haven't lost since 2017.
23 Virginia Cavaliers
I'm not sure Virginia
deserves to be ranked after their last two ugly weeks, but who else deserves
to be here? 
24 Kansas State Wildcats
Didn't play
25 UCF Knights
Loss to Pitt didn't
look good, but I still think they are one of the 25 best teams Next 5:
Michigan State, App State, Army, Wake Forest, and Oklahoma State
