GatorBolt Ballot for 2022 Week 9

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Oct. 24, 2022, 5:25 p.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Georgia Bulldogs The best looking team so far given everything. That Oregon win, albeit Week 1, keeps looking stronger and stronger
2 Tennessee Volunteers Electric offense and a great resume too. Not much more to say.
3 Ohio State Buckeyes Feel bad moving them to 3 after they beat Iowa the way they did (albeit Brian Ferentz tax.) It is shaping up to be a fun title race.
4 Clemson Tigers Moved them up because of their ranked wins. Even if they're not sexy beating solid teams in their division is only a positive.
5 Michigan Wolverines Feel bad moving them down too. The top 5 appear to be a class in their own.
6 TCU Horned Frogs They keep passing the tests, and have proven to be the class of the Big 12 so far and are winning their way into the playoff discussion.
7 Oregon Ducks Its an understatement to say they've recovered from the Georgia loss.
8 Alabama Crimson Tide Good rebound win against Mississippi State. Not much more to add.
9 Oklahoma State Cowboys Proven to at least be the second best team in the Big 12. A rematch in Jerryworld with TCU would be must watch TV.
10 Wake Forest Demon Deacons
11 UCLA Bruins
12 Syracuse Orange Can't really punish them for losing on the road to Clemson. Still I think UCLA and Wake are better teams.
13 Utah Utes
14 USC Trojans
15 North Carolina Tar Heels
16 Penn State Nittany Lions
17 Illinois Fighting Illini
18 Cincinnati Bearcats
19 LSU Tigers
20 Ole Miss Rebels
21 Tulane Green Wave The more they keep winning the more I forgive Tulane for losing to Southern Miss. Not to mention the collapse by K-State makes me factor in the head to head too now.
22 Kansas State Wildcats
23 Kentucky Wildcats
24 NC State Wolfpack
25 Oregon State Beavers This spot was between them and South Carolina. Credit to USCe, but I just like Oregon State better.
