T5. Ohio State 173 T3 vs. #24 Ohio State

I'm picking Ohio State in that one

[cartman]

D'oh! That's what I get for waking up early on a Saturday to post.

My biggest outliers -- ranking Georgia Tech at 8 v. their appearance at 21 in the composite poll, and not ranking Ohio State while the poll has them tied for 5th. The eye-testers win on GT; I hope they're wrong on OSU.

This subject always kind of amuses me tbh. To hear some folks tell it (not here, elsewhere) I'm some sort of raving lunatic when it comes to how I rank teams. Here I usually get grief generally about being some sort of SEC homer (despite my two most hated teams both being in the SEC). Then I look at my polls versus the national ones or the composite here ...

SEC teams: (negative is me lower than the composite)
LSU -3, UGA -4, SC -5, Florida -2
A&M +4, Ole Miss +4
Total: -6

My most overrated (vs composite) teams are:
Michigan +8, Northwestern +5, Stanford +4
The big outliers on underrating are
UCLA -6 and Baylor -4

There's not even an obvious bias in the bottom of my poll
I ranked Texas Tech & Maryland
I did not rank Georgia Tech and Missouri
