Ballot Type: Hybrid

Submitted: Sept. 18, 2022, 12:20 p.m.

Overall Rationale: These are the teams I believe are the best in college football. In general, I would expect any given team to win more than 50% of the time on a neutral field against all the teams ranked below it. I start with an average of predictive computer models and make subjective adjustments as necessary.
