Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 5, 2023, 12:03 p.m.

Overall Rationale: Hard to judge with 1 week. Left top 4 the same, but I will probably penalize Georgia, Mich, etc, for teams with a better OOC schedule (like Bama or an undefeated FSU). Bumped teams that played more impressive games (i.e. FState, Utah, PState) over easy games (USC). Choosing to validate Colorado and TCU as good currently.
