gavinw24 Ballot for 2023 Week 7

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Oct. 9, 2023, 2:27 p.m.

Overall Rationale: My personal rankings of the best teams, which I've been keeping updating each week. My previous #1 Texas lost, resulting in the next 4 shifting up (PSU, OSU, MICH, WASH). Georgia jumped FSU following their route of Kentucky. Louisville upset what was a top-10 Notre Dame.

Rank Team Reason
1 Penn State Nittany Lions #1 Texas lost; PSU was previous #2. Most complete team in college football.
2 Ohio State Buckeyes #1 Texas lost; OSU was previous #3. Wins over quality opponents @ ND and vs Maryland.
3 Michigan Wolverines #1 Texas lost; MICH was previous #4. Hard to properly rank this team until they play a reputable team.
4 Washington Huskies #1 Texas lost, WASH was previous #5. Consistently dominant team.
5 Georgia Bulldogs Routed a top-20 Kentucky team. Only quality win, has struggled against all others.
6 Florida State Seminoles
7 Oklahoma Sooners Defeated Texas
8 Oregon Ducks
9 Texas Longhorns Lost
10 Louisville Cardinals Defeated a top-10 Notre Dame team. Second-best team in ACC behind FSU.
11 Alabama Crimson Tide
12 Oregon State Beavers
13 North Carolina Tar Heels
14 USC Trojans
15 Ole Miss Rebels
16 Duke Blue Devils
17 Utah Utes
18 UCLA Bruins Defeated Wassou, 4-1 team.
19 Washington State Cougars Lost to UCLA
20 Notre Dame Fighting Irish
21 Wyoming Cowboys
22 James Madison Dukes
23 Miami Hurricanes
24 Maryland Terrapins Was ranked #22 last week (in my rankings), and displayed a quality performance against OSU despite the loss. Highly underrated team in my opinion.
25 Air Force Falcons
