Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Nov. 14, 2022, 9:42 a.m.
Overall Rationale: #[Average Ranking Rankings (ARR!)](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1p0CWy5i9D3n3telNo5V66wOHoRpt-oNIUmTqGlYtz3Y/edit?usp=sharing) 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 8.70, #66 Iowa State avg ranking 64.44, & #131 Hawaii avg ranking 114.30) 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".
