Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Oct. 10, 2021, 9:17 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Previous Weeks/Years: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1f3ewKTcSgz4PTeJn_sxYhCSP0U-YKg2QEchUbJnk1cM/edit?usp=sharing Others in Consideration: Pitt, Auburn, Mississippi State, San Diego State, Baylor, Maryland For the first time ever, an explanation: No one deserves to be the #2 team in the country right now. It is so clearly Georgia and then an absolute mess from 2 to 12. Iowa has the resume for 2, but I took more negatives away from their win than positives (if I didn't watch the game, Iowa would be #2 but watching them was so confusing). Oklahoma looked the most complete, but they also allowed themselves to get in a 28-7 hole. Cincinnati looks strong top to bottom but has the worst resume. Same with Coastal Carolina, but even weaker resume. Penn State looked very good with their entire team, but a coaching staff with an unprepared backup is damning. I'm not sure how Michigan State got here, but they did. I could keep going. In two weeks this will feel a lot cleaner, but there is still a lot of blood to powerwash off the asphalt of the CFB Universe.
