Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Sept. 8, 2024, 10:29 a.m.
Overall Rationale: I know what you're thinking, this doesn't really look like a computer ballot. But it is (technically)! This poll was seeded with the results of the r/CFB preseason poll, helping me separate teams much more easily this early on. Teams are graded on offensive and defensive scales, based on the quality of their opponent, point total, and whether they won or lost. The two scales are combined together to produce the final ranking. At the moment, the preseason poll does account for 80% of the ranking value. This will diminish by 10 percentage points per week until the later stages of the season when it'll be all math up in here
