Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 18, 2022, 3:50 a.m.
Overall Rationale: With most teams having played a minimum of 3 games, my primary methodology is to look at record first and then take a holistic approach when looking at the differences in teams with the same record. I do typically save the 20-25 spots for the best 1-loss or 2-loss teams this early in the season. Notable exceptions from this ballot: Duke (3-0), NC State (3-0), Cincinnati (2-1), Coastal Carolina (3-0), Syracuse (3-0), Maryland (3-0), Rutgers (3-0), Indiana (3-0), Minnesota (3-0), Iowa State (3-0). For Duke & NCSU, they have identical resumes, and I really could not pick which one to include and which to exclude. Cincinnati: At this point, I do not see a resume on my ballot to compare to that the Bearcats' are better. Still, I think they'll return next week. They have a game against Indiana that I'm really excited for. Syracuse: This is the most fraudulent 3-0 I've seen so far. Big Ten schools: Yes, Indiana and Rutgers have a P5 win already, but they're scraping the bottom of the barrell there. Minnesota & Maryland have yet to play anyone with a pulse, but I am very very excited to see which of these teams hit 4-0 that I will include next week. Iowa State: Can't be biased. Iowa has to be one of the worst P5 wins out there and Iowa State has not played anyone else worth a damn yet. Other major issue, everyone in the Top 15 could and should be a Top 10 team to me, but there's only ten spots, so what're you to do?
