Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 3, 2024, 11:19 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Week 1 polls are still mostly vibes-based tbh. I will not rank teams that are consistently overrated (USC, A&M, LSU, etc.) until they actually demonstrate that they deserve to be, and to this point they have not.
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Georgia Bulldogs | (-) #1 until proven otherwise. |
2 | Michigan Wolverines | (-) |
3 | Ohio State Buckeyes | (-) |
4 | Alabama Crimson Tide | (-) |
5 | Texas Longhorns | (-) |
6 | Penn State Nittany Lions | (-) |
7 | Missouri Tigers | (+1) |
8 | Utah Utes | (+2) Shameless homer bias rank, but the team looked damn good and Cam is back (he needs to stop running so much though) |
9 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | (+2) Three Big XII teams are joined at the hip for me |
10 | Kansas State Wildcats | (+2) See above |
11 | Ole Miss Rebels | (+2) Very sauceful team |
12 | Tennessee Volunteers | (+2) Very sauceful team |
13 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | (+3) Sauceful? |
14 | Oregon Ducks | (-7) Completely sauceless team, sorry |
15 | Oklahoma Sooners | (-) |
16 | Kansas Jayhawks | (+1) |
17 | Miami Hurricanes | (NR) Okay, Miami might actually be good, you can be ranked if you want |
18 | Arizona Wildcats | (-) |
19 | Washington Huskies | (+5) The rumors of UW's demise have been greatly exaggerated |
20 | Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets | (NR) Stop you're gonna make me ramble my wreck |
21 | Louisville Cardinals | (+2) |
22 | James Madison Dukes | (-) |
23 | Kentucky Wildcats | (+2) |
24 | West Virginia Mountaineers | (-4) Not gonna penalize them too much for being losing to my #6, but you're on thin ice buddy |
25 | Maryland Terrapins | (-6) It's week 1, I can still rank them if I want. DROPPED OUT: Florida State, NC State. |
