Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Oct. 27, 2024, 1:13 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Ranked by losses by conference. P2 > Big 12/ACC > G5 with HTH mattering when appropriate. Which means Notre Dame above the SEC because they beat Texas A & M
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Indiana Hoosiers | Have not trailed all year. |
2 | Oregon Ducks | Most complete Oregon team ever. |
3 | Penn State Nittany Lions | Still undefeated, still BIG |
4 | BYU Cougars | Big 12 looks better than ACC. |
5 | Iowa State Cyclones | Narrowly avoided losses more often than BYU |
6 | Pittsburgh Panthers | Blew out Syracuse, who had the Book of Peace, creating chaos and destruction by stealing it for Eris, Goddess Discord |
7 | Miami Hurricanes | Keeps almost losing games |
8 | Army West Point | Only unbeaten G5 team. |
9 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Just had to beat Nebraska, causing everyone to hate that. |
10 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | Has the best OOC win out of anyone, also because of how this works, has to be ranked above the SEC. |
11 | Texas A&M Aggies | Best team in the SEC |
12 | Tennessee Volunteers | Beat Bama, who beat Georgia, who beat Texas... That Arkansas loss is really confusing. |
13 | Georgia Bulldogs | Lost to Alabama, who lost to Vanderbilt, who lost to Texas, who lost to Georgia. It is the Ciiiiiiiiiiiiircleeeeeeee of suuuuuuuuuuuuuuck... |
14 | Texas Longhorns | Ruined Swaggerbelt. :( |
15 | Kansas State Wildcats | Big 12 > ACC |
16 | Clemson Tigers | No NIL no problem. |
17 | SMU Mustangs | Back from the death penalty with more money than most |
18 | Boise State Broncos | Best quality loss in Oregon. Favorite to get the G5 bid. |
19 | Washington State Cougars | Their best win is a loss to Boise State? Yeah, Texas Tech isn't winning the Big 12. The only other good team in the MWC is UNLV who they do not face. |
20 | Navy Midshipmen | Yes they had 6 turnovers vs Notre Dame, but when they didn't do that, they moved the ball a TON on a great defense. |
21 | Memphis Tigers | Have only 1 loss. May get into the Pac 7 and a half maybe? |
22 | Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns | Apparently the only other team in the G5 with only 1 loss, besides Liberty, who is being banned from the Top 25 on the count of being Liberty. |
23 | Illinois Fighting Illini | Ran out of 1 loss teams. Only BIG 2 loss team, so gets this spot because BIG > SEC |
24 | LSU Tigers | ESPN has them above Alabama in standings, so they must be. |
25 | Alabama Crimson Tide | I guess I have to rank them. Ughh. >:( |
