Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Aug. 6, 2023, 9:06 a.m.

Overall Rationale: It's the preseason, it doesn't matter too much. For me, you couldn't be in the Top 25 this year if you weren't in the Top 30 of my final poll. New players could make others in consideration. Others in Consideration: Mississippi State, Ohio, North Carolina, NC State, Texas Tech // Previous Years: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1f3ewKTcSgz4PTeJn_sxYhCSP0U-YKg2QEchUbJnk1cM/edit?usp=sharing
