ColombianInIowa24 Ballot for 2024 Week 9

Ballot Type: Computer

Submitted: Oct. 21, 2024, 8:35 p.m.

Overall Rationale: The computer does some magic and some weird results come out.

Rank Team Reason
1 BYU Cougars They hang on to their number 1 ranking by a thread after surviving an upset attempt by Oklahoma State. Up next a UCF that nearly dethroned ISU.
2 Pittsburgh Panthers Sleeps. Up next a ranked ACC match-up against #18 Syracuse. Will they prove to be legit?
3 Indiana Hoosiers Absolutely massacred the Huskers, and improves to 7-0 with a meeting with Washington and Gameday looming in the horizon.
4 Army West Point They get more point than ISU, I don't make the rules! Up next a disappointing Air Force squad.
5 Iowa State Cyclones Speaking of the Cyclones, they survived their own upset attempt against UCF. Luckily what follows for them is a bye week to reflect and prepare to face a shocked Texas Tech.
6 Navy Midshipmen Takes care of business and then some against ECU. Up next a decent challenge from just out the rankings (#27) Notre Dame.
7 Penn State Nittany Lions Rested. Up next Wisconsin.
8 Oregon Ducks Destroys Purdue as hoped. Up next #10 Illinois.
9 Boise State Broncos Rested. Up next #19 UNLV for the MW.
10 Illinois Fighting Illini Dominant win over a overrated Michigan team. Up next #8 Oregon.
11 Ohio State Buckeyes Rested. Up next a now disappointing Nebraska.
12 Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Defeats Coastal Carolina. Faces Texas States next.
13 Duke Blue Devils They let FSU shoot themselves in the foot a couple thousand times, and so they survive in their ranking. Up next a real challenge in also just outside the rankings (#29) SMU.
14 Washington State Cougars Underrated as hell, now faces SDSU after defeating Hawaii well.
15 Miami Hurricanes Defeats Louisville in a classic unconvincing fashion. Up next... FSU. Low because Miami is unconvincing.
16 Memphis Tigers Beats UNT with ease. Up next CLT.
17 Liberty Flames Is boring. Up next a snooze against Kennesaw State.
18 Syracuse Orange Rested. Up next a maybe overrated Pitt.
19 UNLV Rebels Destroyed Oregon State. Up next #9 Boise State.
20 Kansas State Wildcats Kansas State back in after throttling the previously undefeated cursed WVU. Up next Kansas.
21 Georgia Bulldogs Without Alabama to limit them, the Dogs climb back in to the rankings. Up next... rest. Low because Alabama sucks.
22 Texas Longhorns Absolutely embarrassing loss to Georgia plummets them. Up next Swaggerbilt, the highest ranked 2-loss team.
23 Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks Loss to Texas means it falls with them. Up next South Alabama.
24 Clemson Tigers Defeats Virginia in a defining victory. Up next... rest. Still not quite excellent and limited by overrated Georgia.
25 LSU Tigers Why did they lose to USC. Up next #28 Texas A&M. Tennessee overrated as hell, with no good wins. Notre Dame still hurt by NIU loss and Texas A&M by proxy. Alabama should not be ranked and I do not apologize. Nor should Ole Miss. No 2-loss should be (sorry Vandy). SMU only because so close to Nevada.
