StFuzzySlippers Ballot for 2026 Week 4
Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 20, 2026, 8:46 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Resume/Eyes/Guts
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
My gut tells me that #1 is an overreaction, but they do have 2 impressive wins over teams that have other impressive wins. I think this makes them #1 based on resume. |
| 2 |
Texas Longhorns
|
vs Ohio State is still the single best win, but the hangover vs UTSA wasn't that impressive. They'll be #1 again probably if they win @Tennessee this week. |
| 3 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
People expected them to route MSU, but I think the Spartans are much improved under the new staff. Still, 2-0 vs Big 10 is a better resume than most can put forth at this time. |
| 4 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
|
| 5 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
|
| 6 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
I have faith in them, but they will continue to slowly slide until they beat someone with a pulse. |
| 7 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
|
| 8 |
Utah Utes
|
Perhaps my biggest early season overreaction, but they just look damn good. |
| 9 |
BYU Cougars
|
|
| 10 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
|
| 11 |
Texas Tech Red Raiders
|
The big jump this week has a lot to do with some of last week's teams sliding down, but it was still a good win vs Houston. |
| 12 |
Louisville Cardinals
|
Great win, and Ole Miss beating LSU makes their week 1 loss all the more forgiveable. |
| 13 |
LSU Tigers
|
|
| 14 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
|
| 15 |
Kansas State Wildcats
|
|
| 16 |
Iowa Hawkeyes
|
Possibly overrated—could end up falling out from here if they can't handle Michigan this week. |
| 17 |
Duke Blue Devils
|
|
| 18 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
|
| 19 |
Mississippi State Bulldogs
|
|
| 20 |
West Virginia Mountaineers
|
Took out a team I was apparenty a bit too high on in Virginia, but I respect it. |
| 21 |
UCLA Bruins
|
|
| 22 |
Houston Cougars
|
|
| 23 |
USC Trojans
|
I believe Rutgers is Buttgers, so being so inept on defense gives me a lot of new doubts about this team. |
| 24 |
Missouri Tigers
|
|
| 25 |
Tulsa Golden Hurricane
|
