Each week SportsDay's college writers and special contributors will rank all 12 college football teams in the state to determine which team is the Best in Texas.
On their ballots, writers cast one vote per team ranking them from best to worst. The top team in their individual polls receives 12 points, the second team receives 11 points, the third gets 10 points, etc.
Those voting in the poll: Scott Bell, Kevin Sherrington, Chuck Carlton, Ben Baby, Bill Nichols, Brett Vito, Adam Grosbard, Ezra Siegel, Carter Karels, Brandon Soliz, Grant McGalliard, Brady Vardeman, E.J. Holland.
Here's how they broke it down after Week 7 of the season.
