cfbpeoplespoll Ballot for 2024 Week 6
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Sept. 29, 2024, noon
Overall Rationale: Computer poll that ranks teams solely on competitive performance. Opponent ranking 1-134 is used to determine how much a team should be rewarded for their performance. Bonus points are awarded for away/neutral wins and outstanding performances. Early season polls are wonky, but they will gradually adjust and even out as the season continues.
