Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 2, 2025, 4:49 p.m.

Overall Rationale: My ballot uses metrics like SP+ and FPI as a reference point and places an emphasis on factors such as strength of victory, margin of victory and vibes. All wins aren't created equal and head-to-head isn't the be-all, end-all when filling out a ballot.
