Jakesnake42 Ballot for 2021 Week 4

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 20, 2021, 12:24 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Now is the time where the resumes of the teams start to take a heavier weight for me as we hit the 1/4th mark of the regular season as most teams have played 3 games now...some teams are gonna drop hard this week *sorry Wisconsin* and in a few weeks it'll probably hit other teams really hard as well *looks at Clemson*...so keep that in mind for the next few weeks anyone reading.

Rank Team Reason
1 Alabama Crimson Tide Alabama survives a test in the Swamp to hold onto their #1 spot with wins over UF and Miami...one of which is not looking so hot now.Last Week: 1
2 Georgia Bulldogs UGA holds onto the #2 spot after demolishing South Carolina...they may soon fall below the likes of Oregon and Iowa if Clemson keeps looking this bad.Last Week: 2
3 Oregon Ducks Oregon and Iowa swap places for me this week as that Fresno St. win looks a lot better now after knocking off UCLA and Indiana losing again now this is starting to feel like the first year of the playoffs again.Last Week: 4
4 Iowa Hawkeyes Read Above.Last Week: 3
5 Penn State Nittany Lions Penn State picks up a nice win over Auburn that gives them a boost in the rankings over OU and TAMU who have have been pushed to the limit by...questionable teams.Last Week: 7
6 Oklahoma Sooners Oh man if they had lost to Nebraska...which B12 team is gonna randomly upset them this season.Last Week: 6
7 Cincinnati Bearcats Cincinnati wins by 14 in a game where they started off really slow but they got the job done to keep their playoff hopes alive.Last Week: 8
8 Texas A&M Aggies TAMU picks up an easy win this week after last week's struggles. Yet to be tested by strong opponent.Last Week: 6
9 Ohio State Buckeyes Ohio State struggled vs. Tulsa but they still managed to look a world's better than Clemson did and I have them swapping spots this week as well.Last Week: 10
10 Clemson Tigers Clemson really wanted to lose that game but a 14-8 win over GT it is instead.Last Week: 9
11 Arkansas Razorbacks Arkansas has really looked good so far this season and the win over Texas and everyone losing has them almost Top 10.Last Week: 13
12 Florida Gators ALMOST beat Alabama...can't knock you much for that tbh.Last Week: 11
13 Ole Miss Rebels Ole Miss blows out a Tulane team who took OU to the limit...this team might be able to put up points on Alabama :eyes:Last Week: 16
14 BYU Cougars Another win over a PAC-12 team for BYU and they are building themselves a resume now...now to see if those wins hold up any.Last Week: 18
15 Michigan Wolverines MICHIGAN HYPE TRAIN BABYYYYYYYY. THIS IS THE YEAR RIGHT!?!?!!??Last Week: 19
16 Notre Dame Fighting Irish ND actually looked like a Top 25 team this week...now it is hell stretch for ND...make or break.Last Week: 15 
17 Michigan State Spartans Welcome back Michigan State, good to see you again. Dominant win over Miami and looked solid all season so far so they jump into the Top 25.Last Week: NR
18 Fresno State Bulldogs LOSS ANGELES!!!!!!!!!! Dude....imagine if they had beat Oregon too...this would be a Top 10 team.Last Week: NR
19 Maryland Terrapins I know this team will collapse the second the clock hits October but they'll looked good so far with a win over WVU.Last Week: NR
20 West Virginia Mountaineers i. hate. you.Last Week: NR
21 Virginia Tech Hokies VT pulls a VT and gets inside the 5 *3* times and can't score...fire cornelsen into the sun god d*** it.Last Week: 14
22 North Carolina Tar Heels Really solid offensive showing vs UVA gives me some faith that this is actually a Top 25 team...still lost to VT way too early to have team above a team they lost to.
23 Iowa State Cyclones Comfortable win...not much more to say. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas?Last Week: 24
24 Wisconsin Badgers Weird to have an off week here. No idea if they are good or not so time to see if they are as they play...Notre Dame welp...time to learn nothing about either team....Last Week: 17
25 Coastal Carolina Chanticleers Nearly lost to Buffalo....who I think is not too bad but still not what you want to see from a potential NY6 team if Cincy falters.Last Week: 21Dropped: #12 UCLA, #20 Arizona State, #22 Auburn, #25 UCF
