cfbpeoplespoll Ballot for 2024 Week 4
Ballot Type: Hybrid
Submitted: Sept. 15, 2024, 1:07 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Computer based poll that utilizes human adjustments starting in Week 4. Points are awarded based on where the opponent is ranked when they play. Every team is ranked 1-134. Additional points are awarded for away wins and 5 teams each week are given a +50 point bonus for outstanding performance. Early polls are a bit wonky, but this should correct itself as the season continues.
