Ballot Type: Computer

Submitted: Sept. 21, 2025, 9:02 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Reasons are Rank% and change from last week. The poll is a mostly strength of resume with a little bit of point differential. It considers only games that have been played. Non-FBS wins in effect are treated as not existing, but non-FCS losses do count. One more note, Oregon and Penn State barely fell out after being ranked in my poll last week, and are 26th and 27th.
