RegionalBias Ballot for 2024 Week 7
Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Oct. 6, 2024, 9:23 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Reactionary. I watch tons of games, so eye test matters. Early rankings often include deserving over likely winner.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
The Death star is moving. We'll see this weekend. Will 3 hour time difference and a strong opponent be too much? |
| 2 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Death Star II looking strong. Red River Shootout this weekend. The lone remaining SEC undefeated. |
| 3 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Huge opportunity this weekend, with an extra day's rest and 2 straight home games. Looking like a potential playoff winner. |
| 4 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Only here because they failed to lose yet. |
| 5 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Talent, but will it come through. Riding that smashing of Clemson. |
| 6 |
BYU Cougars
|
idle - watched others lose |
| 7 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
ACC Refs with the big win late out west. Playing at 2AM has to suck. |
| 8 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
We secretly replaced UAT with UAH. Let's see if anyone notices. |
| 9 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
We secretly replaced a competent QB with Joe Milton. |
| 10 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
The Lane Train is back on track |
