Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Oct. 8, 2023, 10:54 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Teams are assigned a tier based on their ranking (T1=1-4, T2=5-12, T3=13-30, T4=31-50, T5=51-80, T6=81-110, T7=111-133). Points are gained for wins, subtracted for losses, based on the opponents tier. Small modifiers for game closeness (Win/Loss Bonuses/Penalties = WB, WP, LB, LP) and Opponent's record. | Tiers will change slightly week to week to settle numbers (ie: Tier 4 may extend to rank 53, because one team was flip flopping between rank 49 and 53, and causing other teams to go up down in points/ranking) | If two teams are next to each other in the rankings, and have played head to head, the head to head winner will be ranked higher, regardless of points. | | | | Week 6 | Biggest rises: Georgia (+15), Louisville (+10), North Carolina (+9) | Biggest drops: Miami FL (-15), Duke (-8) | New teams: UCLA, Utah, Liberty | Dropped from rankings: Missouri (10), Maryland (19), Texas A&M (23) | Next 5: Wyoming, Maryland, Ole Miss, Iowa, Clemson |
