The 5th biweekly edition of the Boneyard Top 25 poll is upon us. Ballots are due to me, via private message, by 10:00 a.m. ET on Monday, Dec. 30. (If you don't know how to send a PM, let me know in this thread and I will PM you first.) Ballots should reflect all games played through Sunday, Dec. 29.

This poll feels a bit weird because of the 5-day hiatus earlier this week. To help refresh our memories, the results for BY25 teams since the last poll of Dec. 16 are shown below (along with the games still to be played tomorrow).

A few rules:
  • Full ballots (of 25 teams) are encouraged, but short ballots (of at least 10 teams) are accepted.
  • No ties are allowed on a ballot. Each team on the ballot must have a unique ranking.
  • Early ballots: Early ballot submissions are accepted only if the voter provides "contingency ballots" or clear instructions regarding any potentially ballot-impacting games still to be played.

I've decided to extend the deadline by another hour. Ballots are due to me by 11 a.m. Eastern time tomorrow.

I've updated the results table below. (The only remaining D1 game to be played today is Cal vs. Grand Canyon.)

My observation on filling out these polls, I find the lower 1/3 (#17 through #25) of the poll takes the most time and effort.

And a concurrent phenomenon is that's where we see the most variability from ballot to ballot.

Last call for ballots, due in 15 minutes. Sixteen ballots have been received thus far.

I was thinking the same thing. I pretty much breezed through the top 16 but when I got to the 20s I had to actually look up all the conference standings and work from there.
