To piggyback on the ties thing, I’m planning on showing them in the banner in this order but am considering having the rank read as “T3” and “T9”. Any thoughts? I’ll update the banner in a few hours when I get off work
I’m not sure. I made the changes because having two number threes was driving me nuts and I like the elegance of the previous weeks rankings being the tie breaker. However there are several corner cases here that aren’t accounted for. Say two unranked teams tie at 25th? That seems very possible with only half a dozen or so voters. So do we see who recieved more votes previously? And what if we have a situation next week where Texas (hopefully) beats bama but not in a very convincing way and they tie for 6th? The current tiebreaker would have alabama in the lead but Texas would literally be coming off a win over them. So add a head to head clause? I think I personally want a tie breaker, but I definitely want one that works for the community and covers all our bases.
