Charlemagne42 Ballot for 2022 Week 2
Ballot Type: Hybrid
Submitted: Sept. 6, 2022, 12:16 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Computer is at least 30% of this week's rankings. Convergence score for Hybrid Mode is 83.0 (the lower, the better). Convergence scores are lower this year because they are now scaled based on how many teams Hybrid Mode handles. This year Hybrid Mode now handles FCS, D2, and D3 teams. As usual, Convergence measures how much actual human input there is. Computer rankings shown below are out of 638 NCAA teams.
