Here's my breakdown with a comparison.
I was really impressed with Hartman at ND so they got a big bump. I thought they'd be good, but I didn't anticipate how good they'd look on offense with Hartman.
I don't know why I expected SoCal to be better on defense. The offense looks to be fine, but you really can't just count on outscoring every team every week. so they dropped a good bit.
I'll try to avoid poll inertia as we move into week one, so I'd expect my ballot to rapidly change week-to-week.
Bumping Tennessee down to fit USC in?
Booooooooooooooooo
I still think SoCal is going to be good. I think they’d beat Tennessee based on what I’ve seen.
We’ll see what both teams look like next week
I can't see the haters through the pantone 151c colored glasses
I can't believe Alex Grinch keeps getting away with it. How many times does he have to teach us that his defenses are not to be trusted? Still, dropping 5 spots after a week 0 game is extreme, but I respect the willingness to ditch poll inertia.
I’m really trying to make my ballot an estimation of the final poll, rather than a weekly power ranking.
Poll inertia must die for this to be reality
