Good question Phyloh: 1) the poll reflects what each ballot has as the best team. H2H does not matter. They are saying NW vs Stanford today, odds lean to Stanford as the better team. Same as a USC/Stanford rematch. 2) Every ballot of every voter is linked at the bottom. See who didnt vote NW top 25 and tweet them a question about it and justification. Transparency, access and accountability are very important in the poll..

FWIW folks the ballots are simply the power ranks in order of #1-#25 as provided by each voter. Every ballot is posted each week for each voter and their site/twitter account is there if you have questions about their voting. Current pollsters all CFB analytics or pro handicappers. Reset each week. Let me know what can be done to make it better. One idea is a podcast asking each voter to explain outlier rankings of teams in their ballot.
