Darth_Ra Ballot for 2023 Week 3
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Sept. 12, 2023, 9:56 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 131 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 Florida St avg ranking 16.26, #66 Wyoming avg ranking 59.35, & #133 Arkansas State avg ranking 103.94) 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".
