Ballot Type: Computer

Submitted: Dec. 3, 2023, 7:37 a.m.

Overall Rationale: My rankings are derived from an algorithm that I've created and maintained for over a decade. I love college sports and I'm a math nerd, so this has been a little passion project for me. My rankings are completely objective, based on results only. No bias for teams, conferences, divisions, etc. I do not take into account margin of victor, nor injuries. My rankings are an objective measure of accomplishment (I do not factor any subjectivity/eye test). SoS and SoR are a calculated OUTPUT of my rankings, not an input.
