It’s interesting to think how to vote in these polls

1. Vote on what you expect a team to do base on their talent
2. Vote on the results that actually occur

Both have flaws but I think voting on results is better.
A. You want a good rating you need to prove it
B. The regular season is supposed to matter.

Otherwise you reward a weak schedule. I think it is awesome watching P5 matchups in games that matter instead of teams trying to go undefeated. Normally by the end of the season both methods will get the same results
1. Which is why ND is still ranked. They should have dropped out and then earned it back. Probably would’ve happened to 120 other teams?
