THE POWER RANK

Bowl Subdivision Rankings

These college football computer rankings take margin of victory in games and adjust for strength of schedule.  The rating gives an expected margin of victory against an average FBS team.

To make more accurate predictions, these team rankings are combined with a preseason regression model.  This preseason component gets less weight with each week during the season.
