Apparent to me:
- Lots of movement this week, much more than anticipated. Whether that’s from eye test metrics or super niche stats is going to depend on the ballot
- 26 spots this week with a tie for 25th
- This week everyone who dropped out still got some pity points
- Mizzou moves up with that performance?
- We really just bumped up TN after kicking an onside kick while up 30 in the 1st quarter against Kent St? Subscribe
- Speaking of, this is the highest c/cfb has ever ranked the top 10ESSEE Vols (3)!
- Most voters seem to be dumping their Louisville stock, but Penn State takes a massive 8 spot slide
- ND ranked above NIU?!?!
- Memphis beats 23FSU and doesn’t get a single vote
- Lots of fresh faces low in the poll, welcome to the side banner new teams!
Michigan State receiving votes 👀 (2, so that might mean that someone had them at 24?)
plz don’t ban me!
Michigan State is undefeated with a win over a team that doesn’t appear to be a total cupcake. I try to avoid previous-season bias, and only look at the current season results. Frankly, it’s basically a k-way tie in that range this early in the season, and it could have just as easily been some other team at 24.
Updated the banner and the sidebar! Now I’m just waiting for someone to accuse the mods of rigging the poll, given 3 of the top 4 teams…
