bretticus33 Ballot for 2024 Week 12

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Nov. 10, 2024, 2:38 a.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Oregon Ducks Congrats to the Ducks for being one of the first two teams to hit 10 wins on the season.
2 Ohio State Buckeyes Purdue is basically a bye week with a win attatched
3 BYU Cougars That was ugly, and probably quite fortunate. Regardless, BYU’s resume is one of the better ones in the country.
4 Tennessee Volunteers There’s like 5 teams that are in SEC title contention. Tennessee is my personal leader due to their defense and Dylan Sampson, but it’s a mess at the top.
5 Texas Longhorns Texas finally looked like Texas against Florida.
6 Indiana Hoosiers It wasn’t pretty and Indiana finally didn’t blow an opponent out, but it’s still Indiana’s first win over Michigan in forever.
7 Penn State Nittany Lions Washington was the poor whiteout victim this season.
8 Alabama Crimson Tide Alabama might be rounding into form just in time for the SEC and postseason push. That beat down of LSU in a Death Valley night game was one of the best performances in FBS this season.
9 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Thank you Irish for continuing the 1-11 FSU dream
10 SMU Mustangs SMU has been one of the more disrespected teams in the country. FSU named them in their lawsuit against the ACC as “dragging down the SOS”, and now they’re alone at the top of the ACC standings.
11 Ole Miss Rebels We can end the Lane Kiffin-James Franklin comparisons now.
12 Georgia Bulldogs Don’t look now, but Georgia may be playing a CFP elimination game next Saturday against Tennessee, and unless Carson Beck figures his shit out I’m not so sure that Georgia is winning that one.
13 Boise State Broncos Ashton Jeanty
14 Miami Hurricanes We all knew Miami wasn’t really that good. Several comebacks against teams a top 10 team should be routinely beating easily and a lot of controversy along the way. Play with fire enough and you’re gonna get burned eventually, and that’s what happened with Georgia Tech.
15 Texas A&M Aggies Bye week for A&M who is still in the thick of the SEC race.
16 Colorado Buffaloes Deion Sanders may be putting together a legitimate “Coach of the Year” case
17 Army West Point First win against a winning team this season and heading into the bye week with 2 weeks to prepare for Notre Dame.
18 Clemson Tigers It looked for a half that Clemson might falter again. Then the 2nd half happened. With Miami’s loss, Clemson is still in the mix for the ACC title.
19 Washington State Cougars 10 win Wazzu?
20 Kansas State Wildcats Bye week for KSU who needs help to reach the Big 12 title game now
21 Tulane Green Wave Tulane is just blasting their way through the AAC so far, but huge upcoming game against Navy. Losing on Saturday to the Midshipmen ends any CFP hopes.
22 Louisville Cardinals Bye for the Cards
23 South Carolina Gamecocks SCAR is really turning into a dangerous SEC team. Nearly beat LSU and Alabama, just smoked A&M, then destroyed Vandy. SCAR should be in the CFP rankings on Tuesday
24 LSU Tigers Honestly, I was thiiiiiiis close to dropping LSU out entirely. Blowout loss to Alabama and their 2nd in games, as well as a loss to USC that isn’t aging well. Only still in because there probably aren’t 25 teams that deserve to be ranked.
25 Iowa State Cyclones Same with Iowa State. Only 2 losses, but back-to-back to Texas Tech and Kansas. Went from having a dream season to CFP hopes on life support in the span of 8 days.
