Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 6, 2022, 10:44 a.m.

Overall Rationale: I firmly believe that teams that have not won a game do not deserve to be ranked, thus early season rankings always will look a little weird. I rank teams based on performances in game and based on the perceived level of the opponents.
