Here's my breakdown with a comparison.
I was really impressed with Hartman at ND so they got a big bump. I thought they'd be good, but I didn't anticipate how good they'd look on offense with Hartman.
I don't know why I expected SoCal to be better on defense. The offense looks to be fine, but you really can't just count on outscoring every team every week. so they dropped a good bit.
I'll try to avoid poll inertia as we move into week one, so I'd expect my ballot to rapidly change week-to-week.
