Ballot Type: Hybrid

Submitted: Sept. 2, 2025, 2:07 p.m.

Overall Rationale: a combo of cpu, my poll, and ap. CPU heavily favors resume, so teams that ran over an fbs opponent is going to get more. Teams that appear on all three will get preferential treatment. for example Penn St is #1 because it was #9 on cpu, #2 on AP, and #4 on personal.
