Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 19, 2022, 10:34 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Methodology: Power Poll - on a neutral field my #6 team would beat my #7-#25 team for example. It's mostly forward looking, so while wins and losses matter, the goal is to be predictive. This would not be the same as if I had to submit a playoffs rankings which would be most deserving based on resume.
