Preseason Power Rankings
Computerized Power Ratings for collegiate football were created
by SportsMaster, an enhanced data software developer. The
ratings are a statistical analysis of the strength of a football
team. The power ratings are a representation of a team's ability
on a neutral field. Compare the ratings for the two teams after
adding the home field advantage to the home team's rating. The
greater the difference the more likely the higher rated team
will win.
The Power Ratings take into account 45 different statistical
categories and rankings.
