    As always a few notes:

    • No top TENnessee sad vol noises
    • Also it hurt to let bama have the tie breaker over the vols, and I kinda want y’all to acknowledge how brave I am for facing my fears like that
    • “State” schools seem to be having a moment, other than Michigan State, which is having it’s own moment
    • Arkansas and Iowa are tied and neither were ranked last week. I put Arkansas in the 24 spot as they received 11 votes last week to Iowa’s 10
    • Lastly you may have noticed a new column this week. That’s because this is a real ballot somebody took the time to open 25 drop down menus and submit:
    1. Louisville
    2. Troy
    3. Baylor
    4. Cinicinnati
    5. Ohio State
    6. Kansas State
    7. UTEP
    8. Mississippi State
    9. Appalachian State
    10. Navy
    11. Liberty
    12. Miami (OH)
    13. Hawaii
    14. Fresno State
    15. Jacksonville State
    16. Georgia State
    17. FIU
    18. Ball State
    19. East Carolina
    20. Costal Carolina
    21. Central Michigan
    22. BYU
    23. Akron
    24. Arkansas State
    25. Army

    I want to be as hands off this data as possible, but it just didn’t sit right ranking Troy and Baylor because of the strangest ballot I’ve ever seen. And it just raises so many questions in my mind. Who are you? Do you actually think Troy has a good football team? Were you that drunk that you don’t even know? Were you a traveler who just thought they would participate in this small community but doesn’t know football? Are you a buckeye that was trying to subtly boost tOSU’s points? Are you doing a bit? Were you doing this specifically to fuck with me? Because it worked. I haven’t been sleeping since I saw this. But whoever you are if you have a legit system that gave you these rankings let me know and I’ll rework the table. The results tab on the spreadsheet shared in the post will keep that entry but the table above was scored without that entry.

    And to who it may concern:

      So then we do a secondary poll to decide who wins the tiebreakers!

      Haha just kidding…unless…?

      I like how they got lazy in the second half of their ballot and just filled in teams at the beginning of the alphabet. The attention span for that troll job was really short.

      I guess it could also be an early season computer poll, but I don’t understand submitting one this early if it looks like that.
