It's time once again for the greatest minds in college football to get together and rank the top schools in FBS. While there may be many different organizations that vote on rankings and even a tournament played at the end of the season, I remind everyone that this is the one true official poll that will determine the best teams in FBS each week and decide the true national champions. Polls may be done by humans or computers and may use any criteria you see fit, like I said, we make the rules and the decisions.

Also a huge shoutout to @WVbrU@lemmy.world for putting together a slightly more robust backend to the super official google forms poll database.
This year I am also planning on running a competition to help with engagement. Last year we tried a bracket prediction contest and while that was fun, it had no incentive for participation for a large portion of the season. As such, this year I am planning on switching to a weekly pick 'em contest. Each week participants will be able to pick a selection of games and score points that will accumulate throughout the season. I'll let this post double as a forum to discuss the format of the pick 'em contest.
Here's my ballot, which is totally fair, not biased and based on very real metrics.
