jtchr33 Ballot for 2026 Week 11
Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Nov. 9, 2026, 9:07 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Watched more than I normally do, lots of fun odd games at this point. Top seems pretty solid, bottom is all over the place again.
CFP
First round games
8/9: BYU/Alabama
7/10: Texas Tech/Wake Forest
6/11: Indiana/Texas
5/12: Miami/Boise St
Quarterfinals
Cotton bowl: ND & 5/12
Rose Bowl: Utah & 8/9
Peach Bowl: Georgia & 6/11
Fiesta Bowl: UCLA & 7/10
Natty: Utah over Georgia. Close, low scoring game.
Dropped
UTSA: eek, the second they get the spotlight...that happens.
Missouri: not a great game
Ohio State: With their QB out, I thought the backup would rely on the tried a true 'F it he is down there' strategy with the Heisman frontrunner at receiver. Purely un-ranking them because they are ruining not just their team, but also the best WR in the country.
Next Few
Ohio St
OK State
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Utah Utes
|
Great game, great win. Solid resume builder. Great way to get more teams from the Big XII in the playoff |
| 2 |
UCLA Bruins
|
Survived the Minnesota scare better than other teams. |
| 3 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Wow, was not expecting that. That was...dominate. How did this team lose to Auburn. |
| 4 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
This game surprised me, ND looked really good until the 4th then held on when they needed to. |
| 5 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
a foot away, kind of like Indiana from a huge win |
| 6 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
|
| 7 |
Texas Tech Red Raiders
|
|
| 8 |
BYU Cougars
|
I feel like everyone was wanting to drop BYU quickly. This is still a really good team, that ND game looks way better now and I feel people forget that bit. |
| 9 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
ugh, finally a statement win. |
| 10 |
Wake Forest Demon Deacons
|
getting their cupcake in a bit earlier, and looked good during it. |
| 11 |
Texas Longhorns
|
|
| 12 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
That game was...rough to say the least. |
| 13 |
Boise State Broncos
|
another big statment win |
| 14 |
Iowa Hawkeyes
|
Hello again, avoided the trap (with some injury help). Still would be weary with upcoming IL game but avoid them and they can sneak into the playoff |
| 15 |
LSU Tigers
|
|
| 16 |
USC Trojans
|
|
| 17 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
that game was something, until the 4th where they took charge. |
| 18 |
Kentucky Wildcats
|
Wondering if they will drop more or still slip and sneak into the SEC champ game. |
| 19 |
Oregon Ducks
|
After the first quarter, they fully took control of this game, was stunning to me to see. |
| 20 |
Houston Cougars
|
|
| 21 |
South Carolina Gamecocks
|
|
| 22 |
New Mexico Lobos
|
|

I went to bed at half thinking they had it, woke up and saw the score and was nice to be proven right, then saw more of it and...WTF. |
