MyAngelMiraidon Ballot for 2025 Week 6

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 30, 2025, 12:15 a.m.

Overall Rationale: looked at week 5, attempted to order the teams that won first, then attempted to slot in teams that lost into reasonable positions. Teams that were on bye were usually not moved around too much unless other teams really did things

Rank Team Reason
1 Ohio State Buckeyes If oregon won more decisively, they'd probably be #2, but still #1 until proven otherwise
2 Oregon Ducks won against penn state, so by default at least top 5
3 Miami Hurricanes on bye
4 Ole Miss Rebels lsu win on top of the previous week resume means this team has the strongest case imo
5 Oklahoma Sooners on bye
6 Texas A&M Aggies idk if auburn is good but i mean, they beat notre dame?
7 Indiana Hoosiers iowa win felt closer than it shoud be given last week
8 Texas Tech Red Raiders on bye, but mostly here due to teams in front losing
9 Vanderbilt Commodores this feels high considering their opponents, but they are 5-0 and none of the games have been remotely close
10 Iowa State Cyclones arizona win finally at least gives me some confidence in that this record isn't flukey
11 Georgia Bulldogs this begins the chain of "1 loss teams that either lost to really good teams or each other" and is really a vibes thing partially on matchups and partially on whichever team I think is best. Georgia gets priority via tennesse win and their loss against bama being extremely close
12 Florida State Seminoles besides the head to head against bama, virginia might actually be an alright team that just has a really weird loss against nc state
13 Alabama Crimson Tide bama losing to florida state decisively implies florida state should be ahead. They are still gaining 8 ranks from last week so this feels very fair
14 Texas Longhorns they do have a loss to ohio state but no really quality wins either, hence why they're getting bumped down
15 Tennessee Volunteers close loss to georgia and also a win against miss state
16 LSU Tigers ole miss loss, and the other wins in hindsight (mainly clemson) are very suspicious
17 Penn State Nittany Lions they showed they're at least able to keep up with oregon even if they lost in ot. Thus no drop even if they lost (was considering placing them higher but rewarding losses feels wrong)
18 Missouri Tigers this feels kinda low, but in fairness, idk if umass is exactly elite here
19 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets dropped behind missouri mainly because we all saw that wake forest game
20 Michigan Wolverines on bye
21 Notre Dame Fighting Irish if it's anything at the rate this is going, they may sneak in the playoffs if they win out
22 Arizona State Sun Devils narrowly beating TCU should give a few spots
23 Virginia Cavaliers florida state win, and looking at it, ignoring the nc state debacle, all of the other games have been very clear and decisive wins
24 Memphis Tigers continues to run through their schedule, no change here
25 BYU Cougars I mean, they're undefeated and have a p4 win
