Make sure that you haven't repeated any teams!
Honor system 1 ballot per voter per week (I don't want to collect email addresses to limit it on my end)
Losers exposed, winners relieved. Submit your ballot so we can make sense of it all. Or don’t I’m a mod not a cop.
Yeah, ND has played a whopping 8 games which definitely skews the data. If you average it down to 7 games played, they would be about 12th and if you bring them to 6 it puts them about 24th. I think if I were doing this by eye test, I’d have them somewhere in the 10 to 15 range.
Georgia at 6 finally feels like the computer finally placed them in the right spot (early in the season it had them at 1 and at one point as low as 24, I think). I probably would rather see Washington ahead of them rather than USC, though.
I described it a bit in this comment. There’s also some pre-season expectations that get factored in for the first 4 weeks and then it stands on its own in week 5.
I feel like mid-season it can be kind of weird, but it usually feels right at the end each year. For example, in this post I included a screenshot of my top 40 at the end of last season.

I’m curious about your computer poll. How did you set it up?
