MyAngelMiraidon Ballot for 2026 Week 6
Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Oct. 4, 2026, 10:51 p.m.
Overall Rationale: The SEC decided to make this list a headache
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Texas Longhorns
|
E - on bye, Ohio State win still keeps them here |
| 2 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
+1 - Definite frontrunner for the ACC after Clemson trouncing |
| 3 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
+3 - Miss State is almost ranked and asides from having halfs where they sometimes look mortal, have been very strong so far |
| 4 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
E - best win is Northwestern. Beat Rutgers this week and yes Bama doesn't have a ranked win, but... I mean it's Rutgers |
| 5 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
E - Best 1 loss team, but other teams ahead have enough and are undefeated that moving up is not really reasonable here |
| 6 |
BYU Cougars
|
+1 - close TCU win but also Arizona is a ranked win now |
| 7 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
-5 - More a result of relooking at their wins and figuring they really don't have a quality win at all here. Well you do play Bama this week. |
| 8 |
Utah Utes
|
E - on bye |
| 9 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
E - not that convinced by UNC win to bump them any further |
| 10 |
Texas Tech Red Raiders
|
+1 - somehow undefeated but both looks like a top 8 team at times and other times borderline top 25 |
| 11 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
+1 - on bye |
| 12 |
LSU Tigers
|
+1 - won against FCS |
| 13 |
Wake Forest Demon Deacons
|
+4 - Pretty much placed here due to the Miami game, and if they were lower, bye teams would just be getting rewarded even more, which seems wrong |
| 14 |
Duke Blue Devils
|
+1 - on bye |
| 15 |
UCLA Bruins
|
+1 - on bye, there feels like some difference between them and Pitt for this rank diff |
| 16 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
+2 - goes up not for beating Auburn but more due to whatever was happening above them |
| 17 |
Missouri Tigers
|
HM -> NEW - oh so NOW you run over a top 10 team |
| 18 |
Florida Gators
|
-8 - you let Mizzou beat you by 28. I blame you for making this list so much harder to make. |
| 19 |
Northwestern Wildcats
|
(+7) - The Indiana game being that close and running over Penn State should be clearly ranked. I see them being 6-1 heading into Oregon |
| 20 |
Iowa Hawkeyes
|
-6 - Did have a pretty bad loss to Ohio State but that's a very strong team |
| 21 |
Pittsburgh Panthers
|
NEW - undefeated P4 |
| 22 |
Arizona Wildcats
|
HM -> NEW - nice cinci win |
| 23 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
-1 - bye |
| 24 |
Oregon Ducks
|
-1 - bye |
| 25 |
Nebraska Cornhuskers
|
E - September Maryland appears to not be a thing this year Next 10: Houston VT Tech Miss State Boise State Wisconsin USC JMU ND State Cinci Baylor |
