Ballot Type: Computer

Submitted: Oct. 2, 2022, 5:55 p.m.

Overall Rationale: My computer poll logic is as follows: Every team starts the season with 0 points. Teams get awarded points each week based off how many points they score, their margin of victory, level of competition played, and how well a team played that week compared to their season average. If Team A beats Team B 17-0 and Team C beats Team D 34-17, my poll would rate Team C as being better than Team A for that week
