Bereft13 Ballot for 2025 Week 11
Ballot Type: Hybrid
Submitted: Nov. 2, 2025, 10:05 a.m.
Overall Rationale: First a power ranking of teams is created, then it is used to algorithmically determine a strength of record ranking of teams. These are combined to rank the teams, with power weighted higher early in the season and SoR weighted higher late in the season. Power rankings are a mixture of human and computer inputs. Current weight: 56/44 in favor of SoR.
