solarsnail6 Ballot for 2024 Final
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Jan. 21, 2025, 10:48 a.m.
Overall Rationale: The ranking is based on how many "points" a team gets. Points are gained for wins, quality of wins, Pythagorean expectation, and conference strength (based on wins, and with a maximum and minimum so that power/g5 conferences aren't considered much better or worse than other power/g5 conferences). Reasons are how many points each team got, rounded to integers. Next Ten: Kansas State (1308), Ohio (1299), Colorado (1283), TCU (1266), Navy (1257), Memphis (1251), UNLV (1250), Miami (OH) (1236), Texas A&M (1195), Texas Tech (1188)
