mountain_troop86 Ballot for 2025 Week 16 & Bowls
Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Dec. 7, 2025, 11:37 a.m.
Overall Rationale: I did not run the model again with CCG, kinda no point. 1-4 are pretty close to each other and is only ranked by me in order of CCG performance...which does matter. No teams dropped out from last week for.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
That was very impressive and just shut down OSU. Proved they really do belong and vastly different from last year. |
| 2 |
Texas Tech Red Raiders
|
Crushed them again (thank you). |
| 3 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Avenged that loss and then some. |
| 4 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Still an incredibly good team. |
| 5 |
Oregon Ducks
|
|
| 6 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
|
| 7 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
|
| 8 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Got the help they needed. Turns out not true. |
| 9 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
Did my rankings last week before the coaches were selected. With the OC back, not as drastic a drop off I think. |
| 10 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
Got the gifts they needed, I'm still seeing one and done. |
| 11 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
If anyone actually thinks they should be in the CFP (under this format), I don't see it. The key win they had is nullified, since halftime of the first Georgia game, they've had 360yds of offense and 7 points in 6 quarters. Was typing this as they were released, I don't get it. |
