A_Rolling_Baneling Ballot for 2022 Week 3
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Sept. 13, 2022, 3:30 a.m.
Overall Rationale: My poll sets each team's rating as a linear combination of the ratings of the teams it's beaten and lost to. Note that credit is given for wins v FCS teams, but losses to FCS teams are punished severely. The computer solves the resulting matrix. At the beginning of the season, these results won't look anything like the AP Poll, but as the season goes on they'll make more and more sense. Happy to discuss with anyone!
