STANDARD DISCLAIMER: Ignore the deltas. This ballot was filed from scratch with zero regard for last week's ballot. Thus, the "you dropped X team Y spots for beating team Z [score] to [score]???" argument does not stand.

 

This week we went back to ground zero and tried to truly reassess the top 25 ballot. Again, this is one man's opinion from someone who watches about 15 hours of football each Saturday and has seen all or part of at least one game from every team this season.

Although after thinking hard about it, I did bring Wisconsin back in this week. Not because they curbstomped Purdue, but because after looking at the entire body of work, they deserve to be back in.

Game of the week is at "The Farm" as Stanford hosts Oregon to decide who is in the catbird seat in the Pac-12 North.
