Zloggt Ballot for 2025 Week 15

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Dec. 2, 2025, 10:33 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Every five teams makes up a single tier, for a total of five tiers overall

Rank Team Reason
1 Ohio State Buckeyes The monkey - er, Wolverine - is off their backs now...
2 Indiana Hoosiers H O O S I E R M A N I A ! ! !
3 Georgia Bulldogs Somehow, UGA/Bama has returned (thanks a lot Aggies)...
4 Oregon Ducks Again, Texas Tech would likely beat Oregon on a neutral-field...but I will still consider their loss to Indiana to be better than Tech's to Arizona State (even if their wins aren't as of quality)...
5 Texas Tech Red Raiders But just beat BYU again, and you'll be in the Top 4!
6 Ole Miss Rebels They're either going one-or-done, or they're making a deep run...no other option exists now...
7 Texas A&M Aggies Can't get past the cows now, can you?
8 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Alas, their CFP hopes are in God's hands now (via BYU + Bama losses)...
9 Oklahoma Sooners Norman teams, but a Sooner guy!
10 BYU Cougars Things have the potential to be absolutely catastrophic in Provo real soon...though perhaps they're prepared for that over tehre...
11 Alabama Crimson Tide Wouldn't it be funny if they missed out...AGAIN?
12 Vanderbilt Commodores A slight chance at the doorsteps...c'mon, use that cutthroat Gilded Age Social Darwinism to good use and bully the Committee for a spot!
13 Utah Utes Unlucky Utes...even winning just ONE of either Texas Tech or BYU would put them comfortably in the first-round!
14 Miami Hurricanes Nine points (and an OT) away from a Playoff spot...no one mourns the Hurricanes, but like...woof, brutal...
15 Virginia Cavaliers I like the Hoos...but alas, if we are to lift up the G5, then I'm afraid we might need to make a tough (but necessary) sacrifice...
16 Texas Longhorns They're pretty not bad - and hell, I'd even say they're THE best 3-loss team even - but sorry, you can't just be losing to Florida and getting crushed by Georgia and expect a path into a natty (but of course the Committee won't care about that, will they?)...
17 James Madison Dukes Speaking of...they GOT to rank the Dukes by now, right? I get that the Sun Belt isn't as good of a conference...but at this point, they're straight up trolling...
18 North Texas Mean Green ...it's all part of my moderate desire to see Duke win...I would HATE having to pick between JMU and North Texas/Tulane...also rank the Mean Green you Committee Grinches!!
19 USC Trojans Woof...can't believe that funny little game in Champaign is what's possibly (if not likely) keeping the Trojans on the outside looking in...
20 Tulane Green Wave It's truly a shame how Tulane has sort of gained that undeserving reputation in regards to the G5 race...I've always been high on them, and their ceiling is so high too! But alas...losing to UTSA like that does you no favors...
21 Michigan Wolverines Well, 'twas inevitable at some point...
22 Arizona Wildcats ...has the hierarchy of power in the Grand Canyon state shifted back to Tucson? Probably...at least for now, it has...
23 Houston Cougars Coogs!! Much like their professional brethren of the same city, the second half has been much more favorable for them...
24 Navy Midshipmen HOOYAH! Still a bit of a paper tiger (those games against North Texas and Notre Dame were pretty tough)...but whatever, I can afford to throw a bone to an old goat!
25 Iowa Hawkeyes The interesting question of who is the best 4-loss team in the land...lots of potential answers, but I'd say that the Hawkeyes having the "least bad" losses (13 points total) gives them the nod (for now)...
