Ch-i-ef Ballot for 2021 Week 6

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Oct. 4, 2021, 1:42 p.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Alabama Crimson Tide The Matt Corral Heisman hopes and SEC West Hopes died by your hand. Doubt anything other than Georgia in the SEC Championship stands in your way of another playoff appearance, but I doubt a 1 loss Bama gets left out.
2 Georgia Bulldogs The Arkansas rise to fame and fortune with a top 10 ranking and hope for a New Years 6 Bowl dies by your hand. Next 3 opponents are all ranked, but with that defense, you should be able to sweep through to face Bama in the SEC Championship undefeated....riiiiiight?
3 Iowa Hawkeyes This Iowa defense is absolutely terrifying. (Even if you missed facing September Maryland by one day) Now your offense has to show up for a full game with a Top 5 matchup against Penn State. After that, I'd say it should be smooth sailing, but that doesn't exist with this team.
4 Cincinnati Bearcats  A solid win against Notre Dame. Don't slip up now with Temple and UCF on the horizon. Also, with Penn State or Iowa dropping next week, a playoff appearance is more than in reach for a G5 team. Don't let us down Bearcats!
5 Penn State Nittany Lions The schedule is ROUGH from here on out. A top 5 matchup against Iowa's terrifying defense, and then every other week being a top 15 opponent with Ohio State, Michigan, and Michigan State. Good luck...
6 Oklahoma Sooners Just win baby? I feel like this team will finally slip up somewhere, but it'd probably be the worst feeling if it was to your SEC pals, Texas.
7 Oregon Ducks Oh silly Ducks, thinking you could escape from Pac12 cannibalism. Unfortunate that you didn't realize the nerds paid off your QB to throw the game early on in that redzone situation. Enjoy your Rose Bowl game against...Ohio State again? Maybe Michigan? Penn State? Iowa? So many choices!
8 Ohio State Buckeyes I know your fans gave up on the season when your freshman QB in his second start only threw for a bit under 500 yards and 3 TD's in that one score game loss, but look at the bright side, you have 3 highly ranked opponents. A single loss won't keep you out from getting blown out by Alabama or Georgia in the playoffs!
9 BYU Cougars Pac12 South Leader BYU continues to dominate. Next 4 won't be easy though; A Boise State and Baylor team hungry to get back to winning, with Wazzu and Virginia also looming large.
10 Michigan Wolverines Still don't know how Wisconsin was favored. Michigan fans still preventing themselves from getting hyped up after knowing so much pain season after season.
11 Michigan State Spartans You're undefeated, but most of your recent wins have not been reassuring. You face 2 more semi easy teams until your big matchup against Michigan. Figure it out Spartans. 
12 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Brian Kelly just wanted to celebrate his school-record, 106th win for another week.
13 Kentucky Wildcats Wait, Kentucky is 5-0? They beat Florida? They could be 6-0 before facing Georgia? Enjoy this feeling of invincibility for another week Wildcats. Arkansas fans were once in your spot.
14 Oklahoma State Cowboys Much like your soon to not be Big12 brother, you're undefeated, but man you sure play like you don't want to be. We'll see in the next few weeks if you're the real deal.
15 Ole Miss Rebels Ole Miss hopes and dreams crash back to reality. Matt Corral Heisman odds just crashed all together. He wasn't bad per say, but they don't want to give this to a non elite team. That's the Heisman and Playoffs way!
16 Arkansas Razorbacks I mean...this is still better than what you could ever imagine, right Arkansas fans? 
17 Coastal Carolina Chanticleers Coastal just taking care of business year in and out. Too bad Cincinnati and BYU are doing that too with tougher schedules. 
18 Auburn Tigers This is the year, Bo Nix has improved so much under this- AHAHAHA sorry I can't.
19 Wake Forest Demon Deacons Wake Forest could go undefeated and probably wouldn't crack the Top 10 this year. The ACC down bad huh?
20 NC State Wolfpack LA Tech putting up more of a scare then Clemson did.
21 Texas Longhorns Some gas, some brakes, a lot of cautious optimism. Oklahoma looks vulnerable and you finally beat TCU. Let's see if the Longhorns can put it all together.
22 Arizona State Sun Devils Quality Losses > Quality Wins.
23 Florida Gators ''''This'''' close to being undefeated. Bitter to think about, huh Gator fans?
24 SMU Mustangs Unlike the puny Longhorns, the Pony Express has absolutely no brakes and all the gas...well until the end of the year with a matchup against UCF and top 5 Cincinnati...
25 San Diego State Aztecs Oh Aztecs, I forgot about you guys. Let's see here...2 wins against Pac12 teams...undefeated...no other ranked teams in the division with Fresno State's latest loss...Okay, please enjoy your invitation to the uhhhhh LA Bowl where you'll face another mediocre Pac12 team!
