Darth_Ra Ballot for 2022 Week 9
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Oct. 24, 2022, 10:39 a.m.
Overall Rationale: For those who haven't seen my computer poll before, the general rundown is that it attempts to average an easily understandable "Master Ranking" number from all of the rankings of stats, power rankings, and other data I can get that includes all 130 teams that fairly compare teams and coaches across systems and conferences. In other words, I want to end up with a master number that is easily grokkable (#1 Ohio State avg ranking 8.11, #66 Wyoming avg ranking 64.04, & #131 Akron avg ranking 110.48) that will tell you what the average ranking of a team is across a large spectrum of criteria that hopefully encapsulates what makes a football team "good".
