Ballot Type: Computer

Submitted: Dec. 3, 2023, 12:42 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Measures what teams have faced relatively and how they have performed against that competition. Beating weaker competition doesn't do much for the resume. My computer tends to be a little high on non-P5 compared to traditional polling, but I think that's part of the fun. Regarding the elephant in the room (top 4), Alabama's overall strength of schedule, namely their win over Georgia, eeked out the H2H loss against Texas.
