I don't get this group. How is Florida State ranked, while Texas A&M and Clemson aren't? Never mind that Boston College is 4 spots behind. I didn't put them on my poll, which means that Florida State got an average of #19 from the other 3 voters. I don't know how you look at that team and still think the Seminoles are a top 20 team.
alabama is all lowercase, please don't fix it.
The spreadsheet of votes is locked. I can't see where all the polls ranked everyone.
I see a few other trends, but I think they are just outliers due to the small sample size. I bet it will all get figured out in the next 2 weeks.
Capitalization is for proper nouns and alabama is not a proper place...
FSU got ranked highly due to one of the computer polls, FSU has played more games but they'll drop out of that poll in the coming weeks (check the poll in this comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/12160842). But with only 4 ballots that's enough to keep them ranked.
I'll look into unlocking the poll results, I certainly want this to be transparent
I see now about Florida State. I remember that poll from last year was had a few outliers early on, but I felt like it came together nicely at the end. It explains almost all of their points.
I didn't rank Florida State, so make that 2 other voters. b/t this poll and last year's polls, some of the people using computer polls need to work on refining their algorithms :P
I too would like to see the spreadsheet.
Hopefully, there are more submissions in the coming weeks.
