All right, this is just my draft ballot, so if there is some tweaking that needs doing, leave it in the comments. Obviously I've put Utah at #1, and even though it's a mostly symbolic gesture, I do feel like they have just as much of a claim to the MNC as Florida (beat four ranked teams, went undefeated, beat a top five team in their bowl, etc.).
