Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Nov. 10, 2019, 10 a.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 LSU Tigers LSU has by far the most impressive resume of te season. Wins over Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Texas. 
2 Ohio State Buckeyes Buckeyes have nice wins over Wisconsin and cincinnati. Killing everyone. 
3 Minnesota Golden Gophers MInnesota is undefeated. Best win is over Penn State. Lacking quality wins outside of that one, but they made a huge jump in my poll this week. 
4 Baylor Bears Baylor is undefeated. Best win is over Kansas State (6-3, defeated Oklahoma). Also have a nice win over Oklahoma State (6-3)
5 Clemson Tigers Clemson is undefeated and crushing opponents. Best win is over Texas A&M (6-3). Clemson could really use A&M beating LSU or Georgia. 
6 Georgia Bulldogs Georgia is my top 1 loss team. They have nice wins over Notre Dame and Florida. They do have a rough loss to South Carolina, but their wins keep them here. 
7 Penn State Nittany Lions Penn State is 8-1 with a loss to Minnesota. They have wins over Michigan (7-2), Iowa (6-3), and Pittsburgh (6-3). 
8 Oklahoma Sooners Sooners best win is over Texas (6-3). Lost to Kansas State. 
9 Alabama Crimson Tide Alabama is 8-1, with their only loss being a close one to LSU. Their best win is over Texas A&M (6-3)
10 Oregon Ducks Only loss is to Auburn. Unfortunately dont have any wins over a team with fewer than 4 losses. WAshington (6-4) is probably their best win. 
11 Utah Utes Utah has a similar problem to Oregon. No true quality teams in the win column. Best wins are over Washington (6-4) and Arizona state. (5-4). Lost to USC. 
12 Auburn Tigers Auburn is my top 2 loss team. They have a really nice win over Oregon (8-1) and beat Texas A&M (6-3). 
13 Wisconsin Badgers Wisconsin has only 2 losses and has nice wins over Michigan (7-2) and Iowa (6-3). 
14 Florida Gators Florida is 8-2 and should finish the season 10-2. They have a really nice win over Auburn. Lost to LSU and Georgia. 
15 Memphis Tigers Memphis is 8-1 with their only loss coming at Temple. They have some really nice wins though including SMU (9-1) , Navy (7-1) and Tulane (7-3). They finish the season with Cincy.  
16 Michigan Wolverines Michigan is 7-2. They have a nice win over Notre Dame (7-2) as well as a win over Iowa (6-3)
17 Cincinnati Bearcats Cincinnati is 8-1 with their only loss being to Ohio State. They have a nice win over UCF (7-3). They still play Memphis in the regular season and could move up a bit with a win there. 
18 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Notre Dame has lossess to Georgia and Michigan. They have wins over Virginia (7-3), Virginia Tech (6-3), and USC (6-4)
19 Boise State Broncos Boise State is 8-1 and has wins over Air Force (7-2) and Wyoming (6-3) 
20 Navy Midshipmen Navy is 7-1 and has wins over Air Force (7-2) and Tulane (6-3).
21 SMU Mustangs SMU is 9-1 with their best win probably being over Temple (6-3). They still play Navy and Tulane. 
22 Kansas State Wildcats Kansas State lost to Texas this week and really dropped themselves. But they are still my top 3 loss team thanks to their really nice win over Oklahoma. 
23 Indiana Hoosiers Indiana has benefited from a light schedule but theyre 7-2 and have a pretty big matchup with Penn State coming up. no good wins. 
24 Texas Longhorns Texas sneaks into my poll after taking down Kansas State (6-3) this weekend. They've got talent but can't always seem to put it all together. They played a heck of a game against LSU, rolled over a bit against Oklahoma, and had a bad loss to TCU. 
25 Virginia Tech Hokies The bottom of the poll gets really tough to rank. You have good records like Indiana but no good wins, and you have teams like Va Tech with some bad losses. I'm putting them here thanks to their win over Wake Forest (7-2).
