SEC Power Poll Week 7 Ballot

So, Florida beat LSU, LSU beat Auburn, Auburn beat State, State beat Vanderbilt, Vanderbilt beat South Carolina, South Carolina beat Ole Miss, and Ole Miss beat... Florida? Boy, this has gotten complex. The four of us who put our collective mindset into the Red [REDACTED] Cup Power Poll ballot sure cannot agree on a lot with regards of "who is better than who." While we all had consensus picks on numbers 1-4, the rest of the poll was far from consensus.

For example, most voters had Kentucky at around 7 or 8, while I had them at 11. My logic? They, along with Tennessee, are the only teams without conference victories.

Ivory Tower was the lone voter with the Mississippi State Bulldogs at 12 behind even the epically awful Volunteers. His logic? "Booooooo."

Mississippi State had no duplicate votes, garnering a 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th place vote.

No team was voted at 11 twice. Kentucky, State, Arkansas, and Tennessee all got the honor of being voted as the second-worst-of-the-best.

South Carolina and Vanderbilt kept flip-floppin' around our ballot and, of all things, Ole Miss and Kentucky ended up being tied at 7th.

Eh, whatever, here's our ballot. We know it's wacky and likely difficult to agree with from many, many different perspectives but so is this season thus far.
