RagingLasagna's Week 14 Ballot

RankTeamReason
1 UConn seems to be the clear cut best team
2 Purdue really good win over a scrappy (cue white joke) Wisconsin team
3North Carolina beating your rival by 9 replenishes a 1 point GT loss (which is 3 less points than they beat dook by)
4 Kansas probably the best week of anyone ranked, but they still need to prove they can win on the road
5 Houston same conference record as Kansas in their first Big 12 season, dub
6Tennessee i think we're finding out that South Carolina might in fact be good
7 Marquette did I see that Saturday was their biggest margin of victory in a conference road game? Ed Woofey
8 Arizona wish we could see them lift and separate a little bit more from an extremely mid Pac12
9Illinois they beat the team that beat Wisconsin in the same week
10Wisconsin I normally drop teams a little more than 4 spots for getting shutout in a week, but not bad losses by any means
11 Creighton year in, year out, an insanely talented Creighton team that just feels like hieroglyphics to figure out
12 Baylor Scott Drew getting tossed is not good for the brand
13Iowa State I mean they just lost to Baylor? you thought I might still rank them ahead? are you new here?
14 Duke I think I had them 13 last week, no clue how AP voters had them 7. also Filipowski is too little
15Alabama unranked to 15 in two weeks feels like a feat on par with the Bass Pro Shop Pyramid
16 Auburn yet to see a shirtless Bruce Pearl this year, to my knowledge
17 Dayton what's the reason they're in the A10 and not the MAC or the Horizon
18 Kentucky "Dawg I'm watching this Kentucky game this Rob dillingham fella is fucking cooking. 1920s oil magnate ass name" - my friend David
19 Florida Atlantic simultaneously feels wrong and right
20South Carolina long live Spencer Rattler, Senior Bowl MVP
21 New Mexico how the heck did they lose a game at The Pit
22 Utah State Danny Sprinkles are for winners
23 Indiana State Robbie Avila drippiest player in the country, he should have his own statue by now
24 Saint Mary's we're into February and they're still undefeated in WCC play, that matters
25 Central Michigan 8-1 in their last 9. 2nd in the MAC after being picked to finish last. won back to back 2OT games this week, the 2nd without 2 of their best 4 players. it's my alma mater, please let me have this one

Overall Rationale

HM: San Diego State, TCU, Texas Tech, Colorado State, Virginia
