Alright y’all, let’s cast that ballot! (And I cleared the previous responses this time)
My poll this week. Thoughts first:
- Teams 1-3 are clustered close together, then teams 4-6 are clustered close together, and there is a Big drop after No 7 Alabama.
- My spreadsheet doesn’t take kindly to late season cupcake games; Florida State, Alabama, Ole Miss all fell despite their wins.
- Welcome Arizona (my wife’s alma matter) to my top 25 for the first time this season
- JMU stumbled late to perennial giant slayers App State. Does Liberty have what it takes to go the distance?
- Biggest loser this week was Georgia Southern who dropped 17 ranks after losing to Old Dominion. Biggest winner this week was the aforementioned App State, who rose 16 ranks after topping JMU in overtime.

Just a heads up, I can see this post on mobile (Jerboa) but not in the browser for some weird reason. I get the same thing across instances, so it doesn’t seem to be a slow federation thing.
I’ll give it a few hours in case it is. If it doesn’t show up, maybe we should link to this post in the sidebar and as a comment in the last results post so people can find it.
Edit 4 hrs later: showing up now on desktop for me
Yeah same thing as I posted it (from browser) but some updoots showed up before I could see it in the community. So something’s fucky with a server somewhere.
My ballot. Computer poll. Still have a clear #1 and a bit of a muddle in the next 7 spots.
Things that stood out to me: big moves are rare this late in the season but Auburn dropped 11 places (I did expect more) and Arkansas State moved up a whopping 21 places (nearly did a spit take when I saw the score as I was updating my spreadsheet).
