Week 3 BlogPoll Ballot

Photo

Once again, this ballot was filled out with zero reference to last week's ballot, so I advise you to ignore the deltas. The teams were completely re-ranked, thus do not try the "You bumped/dropped Team X for winning/losing to Team Y by Z points??" argument. 

However, as always, the ballot is wide open for suggestions and feedback. I know as much as everyone else does, and I by that I mean that I know absolutely nothing.

Why is Georgia Tech still ranked?

There must be at least one other team out there that should be ranked ahead of Tech. Missouri? Arizona? West Virginia? Oregon State? Air Force? That said, they’ll probably still win the ACC.

Because we couldn't go for three.

Gotta agree, I think.

I think they’ll eventually show us enough to get ranked this year, but they haven’t so far. All of the teams boc mentioned there have shown more than GT to date…especially Mizozu, Arizona and Air Force.

I definitely considered...

… both dropping GT and ranking Air Force. May make that change this afternoon.

Quick question - why Wisconsin so high and Texas so low?

Their 27-14 win over San Jose State really more impressive the the ’Horns 37-10 win over Wyoming?

Probably need to rework that a bit.

At the moment, I like OU/NU/UT as the 1/2/3 in the Big 12. I’ve got to figure out how that all shakes out with the rest of the 5-15 range in the poll.

I’ll adjust it here soon.

Michigan is #1 for me

Other than that, it starts to get messy about being too emphatic about anyone’s rank.

Oh, no one with a loss should be ranked, but yeah, that’s about it.

OU is too low

I really hate OU, but if this ranking is based on resume to date shouldn’t OU be higher then almost every team ahead of them?

OU spanked FSU and as far as we believe right now, FSU is a good team. Boise barely beat V-Tech and then V-Tech went on to lose to George Mason. Should that not drop Boise in the rankings because it dilutes the value of their victory?

agree with your point.

i will point out that vatech lost to james madison. not george mason.

Echoing others

Ga Tech should not be ranked. I can’t buy Boise at #3, given their only victory is over an 0-2 team. How is Florida State still ranked? Their win is over Samford, who Hoover High School might be able to beat. Miami should be the only ranked ACC team at this point.

I don't think anyone with a loss should be ranked either

The rankings should be very fluid, it’s week 2. If FSU or GT are that good, they’ll have time to make their case.

That comma should be a semicolon

since we’re being grammar nazis today.
