Week 13

I've been doing a series like this over on /r/CFB for 6 years now, started for College Basketball last year. The post attempts to visualize consistency between voters in the AP Poll in a single image. Additionally it sorts each AP voter by similarity to the group. Notably, this is not a measure of how "good" a voter is, just how consistent they are with the group. Especially preseason, having a diversity of opinions and ranking styles is advantageous to having a true consensus poll. Polls tend to coalesce towards each other as the season goes on.

Stephen Tsai is back in this week after a week off, bringing the number of voters back up to 64.

Sheldon Mickles and Stephen Means were the most consistent voters this week. New voter Bennett Conlin is down to 7th place on average in his 2nd week, Bringing Clayton Collier back into first, with Sheldon Mickles, Wayne Epps, Kevin Brockway, and Jerry Carino behind him.

Jesse Newell was again the biggest outlier this week. Jesse Newell, Jon Wilner, and Luke DeCock remain the top 3 outliers, with Donald Hunt moving ahead of Dave Preston in fourth.
