bwburke94 Ballot for 2022 Week 8
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Oct. 17, 2022, 2:06 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Numbers given are a projected point spread compared to an average FBS team. First 5 out are Oregon State, Purdue, Texas, Mississippi State, and Troy. Bottom 10 (best to worst) are UMass, South Florida, Western Michigan, Charlotte, Hawaii, New Mexico, Colorado State, Nevada, Northwestern, and New Mexico State. I still don't get why my thing hates Ohio State so much; even with the home field adjustment removed from the formula, they'd still only be ranked #17.
