bakonydraco Ballot for 2021 Final
Ballot Type: Hybrid
Submitted: Jan. 11, 2022, 5:09 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Based off of the algorithm I developed last year given the very strange season. Full rankings at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FoA3qrDX7UUKU7jFy_F_q-ESiPxHm9sdbvBvV5k6HoM/edit?usp=sharing. Methodology here: https://old.reddit.com/r/CFBAnalysis/comments/jfp3uk/2020_full_11000_rankings/. The poll I submitted is not a strict algorithmic ranking, record and conference championships are also considered.
