ExternalTangents Ballot for 2024 Week 9

Ballot Type: Computer

Submitted: Oct. 21, 2024, 7:01 p.m.

Overall Rationale: Probabilistic, predictive rating based only on teams' results so far this season. This is NOT an achievement/resume rating, it's meant to predict future results. There will be teams ranked ahead of opponents they've beaten and teams with a better record than them. Net rating is how far above/below the average Div 1 team (FBS and FCS combined) the team is. Offense and defense ratings are how many points above/below average they score or allow.
