A wild and wacky week last week. One with ballot implications for sure

    I found today’s poll super hard. My methodology is what it always is: look at the last week’s rankings, look at the results, and vibe my way through it.

    The hardest part of this week was when I got to 20, realized I forgot about Oklahoma, and had to figure out the middle again.

    I have very low confidence on my picks under the 10 or 11 slot, but based on this week’s results, so do the professional pollers too.

      Really curious about the rationale behind Mizzou at #12, given you’ve got LSU (who beat them) at #17 and aren’t ranking K-State or Kentucky. I hope it’s not because they just picked up a “quality loss” yesterday…

        I would say it’s largely because I’m bad at this, and you’re probably right.

        EDIT: I just noticed the Coaches Poll did something similar to me. Of course, the Coaches Poll is often bizarre.

          LOL, no worries. There are AP voters that are more consistently bizarre (looking at you, Jon Wilner).

          And actually, this made me curious since I hadn’t looked at their individual ballots in a while, and Wilner did the exact same thing but with Mizzou at 11…
