Thanks, Tomahawk Nation, for taking the mantle of boldness from yours truly's shoulders. For the record, I remain near the top of this category because I have every mid-major team well below its poll ranking.

Tomahawk Nation's ballot, on the other hand, is weird for a number of reasons: it has an ACC team—North Carolina—#8, South Carolina #14 [down from # 12], and various other perturbations. But the main reason is a sudden, exaggerated version of the mid-major hate that won me this thing last week: Utah, Boise State, and TCU, 10-12 last week, all plummet right out of the ballot this week. I didn't intend to win this, I was just truly fed up with the mid-major hype fest. Maryland would rack each of these teams by 14+ if they took them seriously.
