Ballot Type: Computer

Submitted: Oct. 28, 2019, 10:20 a.m.

Overall Rationale: This poll eliminates all preseason bias and all previous season bias. This poll takes into account wins, losses, MOV, and SOS. Each week, a teams opponent is given a rank between 1-130. Wins are good, and losses punish. Losing to a good team isn't as rough as losing to a bad team. Beating a bad team is still better than losing to a good team.We as humans take too much comfort into polls with assumed biases that aren't actually true. The AP poll and alot of human ballots here are based off a preseason poll that we assume is static, when really it's a crap shoot.
