It looks like UC Davis/Idaho didn’t get updated correctly. If you want our picks for that game, give me Idaho.
I feel like I’m second every week, lol
The main reason is, I try to over react a bit in my polls, because I am afraid if I don’t, the poll will be stagnant. “Poll Inertia” and all that is real, so I try really hard to avoid it.
Indiana is #1, and I feel very comfortable with that. I think that 63-10 win over Illinois is the best win by any team in the season. The rest of their wins are big (If you realize 5 points in an Iowa game is the equivalent to 20 in a normal game.)
Texas A&M is basically tied to Ohio State right now. I think Ohio State is a bit better, but the Aggies have played a tougher schedule, and have played an extra game. If Ohio State wins comfortably this week, while Texas A&M is on the bye, it will probably switch, but that is next weeks problem to figure out.
Here is my Human Poll
I feel confident about the top 20, but there are about 15 teams that I thought about for the next 5 spots.
Anyway, feel free to yell at me. 1 Indiana

I feel bad about this week. Penn State feels like a trap game against Ohio State this weekend.
The criteria for artists they provide is not good. Maybe Ireland is different, but I think broadly, we need more bridge builders than music bands. Both require skill, practice, hardwork and require “art” skills. The difference is, people tend to care about the oversaturated one more. We need both, but one is much more underutilized.
What a joke. What coach is out there that will do better?

I can’t remember if I did this earlier in the week, so I went ahead anyway. If I did do it twice, just use my first response please.

I like to wait until the results are posted before I share mine. I will be busy this week, so this is about all you will get.
Special Shoutout to Idaho State for winning 90-0. If we did FCS, I would put them in. I don’t know if you need a rule, but winning by 90 should get you at least a vote.
Yeah, I don’t know. I guess the upside is, this reply worked. And their are so few messages, that I can easily find it.
This poll is so funny. Georgia and Tennessee go into overtime. Georgia wins, and is not the best team in the country. Tennessee loses close to the best team in the country, and are kicked out of the poll. lol
Thanks running this.
Noob question about Lemmy. Are mentions like the one in this post supposed to notify me? I thought that was the case, but I’m not getting anything. I’m just wondering if I have the wrong name listed.
Some wide swings. South Carolina, Miami, and Texas all dropping by 9, 7, and 6 with a win is incredible.
LSU in first without a first place vote is funny.
Yeah baby, got a point.
This week felt like a really good slate. Good job picking the games.
Yeah, that is sound logic for a computer poll. Really just week one jank that will even itself out. Although, Iowas State being #1 wouldn’t be bad…
I was just about to ask for an explanation about Iowa State getting a first place vote, then I saw Maryland got a first place vote (their only points), and now I need an explanation even more.
Well, at least my poll won’t be the most unusual. Here is my poll, just to show that I am not afraid to share either. Feel free to poke it. It is all human.
And the next 5

I just now saw this, and I submitted my picks. I picked what I honestly would have picked on Friday. Please don’t let me win. I submitted just because entrants were still open, and I wanted to have more entrants. I am being honest, but you shouldn’t trust me.
I get it. Although it tends to get easier as the season goes on, it is hard to rank some groups. The group 4-8 is all interchangeable, and I don’t blame anyone else for having a different ranking.
Houston is really getting the nod because the one game I have watched them in, they played very well (at Arizona State). The score is much closer than the how the game actually felt, and I am giving them the nod for making my team look bad.
