T-Thugs Ballot for 2026 Week 10

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Nov. 3, 2026, 9:39 a.m.

Overall Rationale: Each week I re-rank all teams based on their resumes so far.

Rank Team Reason
1 Miami Hurricanes Undefeated. Nice wins over Wake Forest (7-1), Pitt (6-3), Clemson, (5-3), UNC (4-4)
2 Utah Utes Undefeated, nice wins over Houston (6-2) and Cincy (5-3). Huge matchup with BYU this week.
3 BYU Cougars 7-1 with very nice wins over Notre Dame (7-1) and Arizona (6-2). Weird loss to UCF.
4 Georgia Bulldogs 7-1 with nice wins over Alabama (6-2) and Florida (5-3). Lost to Auburn
5 UCLA Bruins 8-0 with wins over Oregon (5-3) and Wisconsin (5-3)
6 Texas Tech Red Raiders 6-1 with wins over Houston (6-2) and Arizona (6-2). lost to cincy.
7 Kentucky Wildcats 7-1 with wins over LSU (6-2), South Carolina (5-3), Oklahoma (4-4), texas a&m (4-4) lost to alabama
8 Indiana Hoosiers 7-1 with wins over northwestern (6-2), Nebraska (5-3) and Minnesota (5-3). Really find ways to squeak by. I don't think this team is actually very good this year, but think the resume puts them here. Lost to Ohio State
9 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Resume really took a hit this week. Best win is over Wisconsin (5-3). Also beat North carolina (4-4). Big chance to move up with a game against Miami.
10 Wake Forest Demon Deacons Beat Louisville (5-3) and NC state (4-4). Lost to Miami
11 Texas Longhorns Texas has a great set of wins. Wins over Ohio STate (6-2), Tennessee (6-2), Ole Miss (6-2), UTSA (7-1), and Miss St (4-4). Losses to Oklahoma and Florida
12 Ole Miss Rebels 6-2. Beat LSU (6-2), Missouri (6-2), Louisville (5-3), Auburn (4-4). Lost to Texas And Florida
13 Ohio State Buckeyes Ohio State i think is in big trouble without Sayin. They dont look like the same team without him. If i was just going on who I think would win matchups, I'd probably drop them quite a bit. Resume-wise i think they still look pretty good. Nice wins over Indiana (8-1) and Iowa (6-2). Lost to Texas and USC.
14 Tennessee Volunteers 6-2. Nice win over Alabama (6-2). Also beat Auburn (4-4). Lost to South Carolina and Texas
15 Alabama Crimson Tide 6-2 with nice wins over Kentucky (7-1), South Carolina (5-3), and MIss St (4-4) lost to Georgia and Tennessee
16 Arizona Wildcats 6-2 with wins over Cincy (5-3) and West Virginia (5-3)
17 USC Trojans 7-2 with a win over Ohio State (6-2). Lost to Oregon and Wisconsin. Ohio State win is carrying a lot of water for a team that I don't really believe in.
18 Iowa Hawkeyes 6-2. Beat Wisconsin (5-3) and Washington (5-3). Lost to ohio st and minnesota
19 LSU Tigers 6-2 beat Clemson (5-3), Texas A&M (4-4), Miss St (4-4), Auburn (4-4). Lost to kentucky nad ole miss
