bwburke94 Ballot for 2024 Week 13
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Nov. 18, 2024, 3:51 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Although this algorithm only uses wins and losses, and this is not a predictive metric, values given are converted to a projected point spread vs. an average FBS team. First 5 out are Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Arizona State, Duke, and James Madison. Bottom 10 (best to worst) are FIU, Middle Tennessee, Tulsa, UMass, Wyoming, Southern Miss, UTEP, Kennesaw State, Kent State, and New Mexico State. This poll continues to be relatively stable, as although two new teams entered the top 25, they were at the #23 and #24 spots, and the latter re-entered after just one week unranked.
