ColombianInIowa24 Ballot for 2023 Week 9

Ballot Type: Hybrid

Submitted: Oct. 22, 2023, 3:13 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Resume based scoring, being perfected still, need to reweigh Vegas and implement full HTH where required. Will be bad because Louisville beats Notre Dame and Notre Dame owns the rest of the 2 losses.

Rank Team Reason
1 Florida State Seminoles Beat the Blue Devils at home in a 4th quarter pull away, giving them a decisive victory. Congrats! Up next, Wake Forest.
2 Ohio State Buckeyes Also impressive victory again Penn State, distinguishing Ohio State as legit. Up next a feisty but likely wavering opponent in Wisconsin.
3 Washington Huskies Disgusting slug fest at home against Arizona State somehow goes mostly unpunished by the model. I may look into docking them. Up next another strong opponent in Stanford.
4 Michigan Wolverines Demolished floundering Michigan State. Up next Purdue.
5 Georgia Bulldogs BYE week with nothing else to say. Up next a rivalry game against Florida to maybe try to test UGA.
6 Air Force Falcons Convincing victory over a service academy puts them in the continued rise. Up next against a not to be trifled with Colorado State.
7 James Madison Dukes Impressive victory over Marshall to dominate the game and the conference. LET JMU IN! Up next ODU.
8 Oklahoma Sooners Terrifying win against UCF, pulled up by a failed 2-point conversion. UCF ain't bad, but Oklahoma must be careful. Up next a not so bad Kansas.
9 Oregon Ducks Solid win over Washington State at home. Up next a big challenge for control of the Pac-12 vs a injured Utah.
10 UNLV Rebels Literally the only team that has challenged Michigan, continuing to do their job even if less convincingly against a feisty CSU. Up next #23 Fresno State for a fun match.
11 Penn State Nittany Lions A loss to tOSU stings, as Penn State could find nothing. Up next a tune-up against a terrible Indiana.
12 Texas Longhorns It was a first down, but alright. Texas survives Houston to improve. Up next a strong BYU.
13 Liberty Flames Dismantles MTSU in the end to continue being here. They can't keep getting away with it! Up next a not terrible Western Kentucky.
14 Alabama Crimson Tide Wins a rivalry game in a destructive shutdown in the second half. A silently (and never ranked here) LSU awaits.
15 Wyoming Cowboys Model loves Wyoming this bye week, as they look to take down #23 Fresno State next.
16 Ole Miss Rebels Put the terrible Eagle away. Up next a dead in the water Vandy.
17 Missouri Tigers They aren't doing well them Gamecocks, as they fall badly to Mizzou. Up next... nobody. But after that? #5 Georgia.
18 Tulane Green Wave Tulane on a bad day is still good enough to put away North Texas. Up next a living Rice.
19 Oregon State Beavers Resting in wait. Up next a revived Arizona trying to ruin more seasons for the Pac-2.
20 Utah Utes Utah demolishes the terrible demon that is USC. Up next #9 Oregon for control of the Pac-12.
21 UCLA Bruins Beats Stanford by a million like ranked teams do. Up next the team that failed against Stanford.
22 Toledo Rockets Model likes the team that beats Miami (OH). Up next a not dead yet Buffalo. Not my favorite choice for ranked here.
23 Fresno State Bulldogs I like the Mountain West this year an awful lot. Let's see if UNLV is actually the decent team I think they are.
24 Georgia State Panthers Georgia State puts away Louisiana. Up next a powerful Georgia Southern.
25 Louisville Cardinals After dying to Pitt, Lousiville gets to reflect on life choices. Up next an angry Blue Devil squad battered by FSU, facing this rested and angry team. Unfair for my blue devils tbh.
