Louisville @ Stanford
It is still way too early, but if my Cardinal can upset the Cardinals that would be great.
Was traveling last week and forgot to submit, but I’m back with another bad poll
Alabama down at #30 because they’ve played a game less than many other ranking two loss teams. Notably Ohio State up at #7 after dropping out of my top 25 two weeks ago.
Notre Dame hates America.
My computer really doesn’t like Ohio State (#27) and Alabama (#34) after their respective losses. I spent too much time trying to over-fit the data and get them ranked higher before realizing that my computer must not be what is wrong and instead it’s everyone who thinks that Ohio State and Alabama should be ranked in the top 25.
Anyways, why worry about anything when you have #1ndiana?
At this point in the season the only thing that I want is for Navy-Army to be an undefeated match-up.
Seeing Michigan fans at the bar watching this game is 👌
I haven’t watched any of their games, but how in the world is FSU so bad? This must be the worst that a pre-season ranked team (at least up as high as 10(!)) has ever performed, right?
I might just be blind but I think ULM is missing from the Others receiving votes.
Guess what - I’m back and this week I’m just going to submit my awful computer poll in its completeness because where is the fun in being rational.
I’ve modified the methodology slightly, but it’s still incredibly rudimentary and it hates two loss teams which is good because I hate them too. It still really favors teams that haven’t lost, but I’ve added some SOS and Conference Strength weight, so it kind of keeps teams in check but not really.
Some fun facts: -It rates the SEC highest of all conferences (I have each conference start out level and it adjusts their strength based on out-of-conference performance; I haven’t actually looked at these records so I can’t speak to the validity of it). Followed by: Big Ten, ACC, Big 12, Pac-12 (congrats OSU and WSU for keeping it above the Group of 5 conferences). -It thinks that Florida State has had the more difficult schedule up to this point and that Army has had the softest.
Alright, you guys win, I’ll take the time to actually put something together. Ended up playing it pretty safe:
I tried throwing together a computer poll, but it’s pretty rudimentary and over-favors teams that have played more games (and won those extra grames):
MSU got this and you can’t convince me otherwise
I completely overlooked the ballots. That’s spicy!
Michigan State receiving votes 👀 (2, so that might mean that someone had them at 24?)
Someone better start counting to confirm that OP isn’t hiding a file from us.
Edit: Editing this 3 months later because this is my most recent comment and the typo is haunting me.
Cowards didn’t rank Kansas smh
