The official SB Nation Big Ten writers poll is the only truly unbiased poll any college football fan could ever need.
AP Poll? Shmay Pee Poll! Coaches Poll? We all know that coaches don’t have time to fill out a weekly survey, let alone watch enough games to make informed choices! That’s why your friendly neighborhood Big Ten writers from across the SB Nation universe have banded together to come up with the only fair, accurate, non-biased poll in all of college football.
Every week, a writer from the 16 sites covering specific B1G schools (lowly UCLA and USC don’t have SBN sites) will submit their picks, and O Basse from Michigan State site The Only Colors will compile them into the official SBN Big Ten Writers Poll
.
I will keep you updated on our selections here on Land-Grant Holy Land, and I will let you know how I vote every week because we believe in truth, justice, and transparency in journalism here in Buckeye Country.
There will also be a Player of the Week selected by the Big Ten writers and a Heisman Trophy leaderboard. So, without further ado, here is the post-Week 6 SB Nation Big Ten Writers Poll.
These rankings coincide with my Top-12 picks every week on the “No Fall Weddings” podcast in the Land-Grant Podcast Network feed, which you can subscribe to anywhere you get your favorite audio entertainment.
New episodes generally come out on Wednesday afternoons, but sometimes on Friday mornings. “No Fall Weddings” is your one-stop shop for everything you need to know about the Buckeyes and the rest of the college football world.

Ashton Jeanty averaged 14.3 yards per carry. Let me repeat that, Ashton Jeanty averaged 14.3 yards per carry. The Heisman-contending running back went for a total of 186 yards and three touchdowns in his Boise State Broncos’ 62-30 win over the Utah State Aggies.
While it is difficult enough for a running back to get an invite to New York for the Heisman Trophy ceremony, one to imagine an RB from a non-Power 4 school getting one is absurd... right?
At this point, I think that you have to include him in your list of finalists, as evidenced by the results of our Heisman poll below.
Others receiving votes:
Diego Pavia | Vanderbilt, QB (my pick)
