Cassiyus Ballot for 2022 Final

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Jan. 10, 2023, 8:40 a.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Georgia Bulldogs #1 for many obvious reasons! Had some stinky wins along the way (Kent State, Missouri) but never broke. Excellent finish to an amazing year.
2 TCU Horned Frogs Even with the absolute skull-fucking, this was a season to remember forever. Best TCU season since their Rose Bowl win, and Duggan will go down as a God Damned Man.
3 Michigan Wolverines
4 Tennessee Volunteers A non-playoff team at #4?? Sure enough. I know Ohio State only lost because of a missed kick, but Tennessee whipped the hell out of Clemson.
5 Alabama Crimson Tide A season of what-could-have-beens for Alabama. A great team that just couldn't pull it out at the right times. But for almost any other school, #5 would be a dream.
6 Penn State Nittany Lions Wait, you're gonna rank the Penn State Nittany Lions ahead of Ohio State despite the head to head? You're goddammned right. When you win the Rose Bowl you get to do whatever you want. Fuck 'em.
7 Ohio State Buckeyes Hey #7 is considered lucky in many cultures. You should be thankful.
8 Washington Huskies
9 Tulane Green Wave In a field of outstanding bowl games, Tulane's comeback might shine brightest of all. 12 wins is gorgeous.
10 Utah Utes It really was a great year for Utah! I hope they put it together again next year.
11 Florida State Seminoles Kinda out of nowhere, right?
12 USC Trojans A poor man's Alabama in the sense of What Could Have Happened Differently this year. Oh well!
13 Oregon State Beavers Nice to see them this high up!
14 Clemson Tigers Sadly a waste of a really good defense. They'll reload but they're gonna lose a lot talent.
15 Oregon Ducks
16 Kansas State Wildcats Never any shame in losing to Bama in the postseason. A crap way to end out the year but they'll always have the Big 12 championship game!
17 Notre Dame Fighting Irish
18 LSU Tigers
19 Troy Trojans Started 1-2 after a wild App State loss. Wouldn't lose another game. Hard to gauge how good they were but winning 11 in a row is good shit.
20 Mississippi State Bulldogs Much love to Mike Leach.
21 Pittsburgh Panthers
22 Fresno State Bulldogs
23 Duke Blue Devils
24 Ohio Bobcats
25 South Dakota State Jackrabbits Bookending my poll with national champions
