Nine ranked teams lost last week, only two weeks before the FCS playoffs. Here’s how that impacted the latest Stats Perform FCS Top 25 Poll ballot from NCAA FCS football reporter Stan Becton.
Every week, the top teams in the FCS are ranked nationally by both FCS coaches and FCS media. I, Stan Becton, am obviously not a coach, but I am a part of the FCS media and I do have a vote in the Stats Perform FCS Top 25 Poll. I’ll be submitting my ballot weekly, ranking my top 25 FCS teams.
Remember, this is my one ballot out of 56 total Stats Perform FCS Top 25 Poll voters — and just one ballot from the 23 national representatives that vote. That’s to say, yes, my ballot does impact the poll, but it’s in no way the end-all-be-all factor.
Nonetheless, here is my Stats Perform FCS Top 25 Poll ballot for this week.
