Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Oct. 6, 2024, 9:34 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Still too early for anything to mean anything, ranked by losses, and by conference. P2, M2, Pac 2, G6. This week showed how overrated the SEC was, and so BIG moved ahead of them. HTH matters. Which means Notre Dame HAS to be above Texas A&M which means I have to rank them for once because THEY killed Mizzu.
