Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Oct. 3, 2022, 1:54 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Resume based: I sort teams into tiers based on W-L with a one L penalty to G5 teams, then within tiers sort by losses against higher tiers and wins over the best tiers. Teams ranked within those tied by eye-test/how I arbitrarily feel that day. Still too early for me to like the results honestly, but should roughly be rewarding most-deserving teams as time goes on. Tier 2 this week (1 loss P5/unbeaten G5) gives 33 total teams, teams on my spreadsheet but unranked (and therefore still counted as quality wins) are: K St, BYU, JMU, Coastal Carolina, Minnesota, Illinois, Washington State Tier 1 teams are P5 undefeated - sorted by T2 wins then eye test; T2 sorted by T1 losses, then T2 wins, then eye test. I won't punish someone for losing to a good team
