D1N2Y Ballot for 2022 Week 6

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Oct. 2, 2022, 2:52 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Arbitrary personal metrics with some head-to-head sprinkled in

Rank Team Reason
1 Clemson Tigers (+3) Won two games in a row against ranked teams, haven't had a bad week yet
2 Ohio State Buckeyes (+0) Took care of business as expected against Rutgers
3 Georgia Bulldogs (-2) One week of shakiness is understandable. This is two weeks in a row where they haven't played like a top-25 team
4 Alabama Crimson Tide (-1) Bryce Young injury on throwing arm, allowed Arkansas to get back into the game
5 Ole Miss Rebels (+8) Good defense at the end against Kentucky
6 Oklahoma State Cowboys (+2) Good win at Baylor
7 Tennessee Volunteers (-1) Teams shifting around, win against Pitt looking less impressive
8 Michigan Wolverines (-3) Teams shifting around, played in a game not noteworthy
9 Penn State Nittany Lions (+5) Most of these gains are the teams moving around, still won a game in sloppy conditions
10 Wake Forest Demon Deacons (+6) Good win at Florida State, loss to Clemson looks better
11 Kentucky Wildcats (-4) Loss to Ole Miss, need to get shit back together or face damnation against South Carolina
12 NC State Wolfpack (-2) Team showed good play in the first half at Clemson, but fell apart at the hardest place to play in the country
13 Oregon Ducks (-1) Blowout at the hands of Georgia is slightly less forgivable now
14 Washington State Cougars (NR) I overlooked this team by not putting them in the rankings last week, my mistake
15 Utah Utes (NR) Impressed by the decisive win against Oregon State
16 TCU Horned Frogs (NR) Dismantled Oklahoma football, you hate to see it
17 USC Trojans (-2) Shaky 1st half against Arizona State and shaky performance against Oregon State does not inspire confidence
18 Kansas Jayhawks (+5) Another one. Win against Duke also looks more impressive
19 Syracuse Orange (NR) Undefeated, albeit with 2 nailbiters against "lesser" competition
20 Kansas State Wildcats (+1) I'm too high on Texas Tech, but good win
21 BYU Cougars (-3) Less-than-stellar performance against in-state-state rival
22 Baylor Bears (-3) Lost to a good team
23 UCLA Bruins (NR) Beat Washington convincingly, game against South Alabama still making me less than confident in this team
24 James Madison Dukes (+0) Played a football game and won it
25 Tulane Green Wave (NR) Southern Miss loss still stings, but I still like the win against Kansas State a lot
