Power Ratings & Rankings

Official Web Sites: NCAA | NCAA D-2 | NAIA | American Football Coaches Association

Before the colon, the systems are labeled with the type of mathematics used (Adv=advanced, Seq=sequential--ratings calculated starting with previous week's ratings, Frm=formula, Met=meta--based on other rating systems), the information considered (Win=win/loss only, Scr=plus score--such as margin of victory, Hom=plus home field advantage, Oth=plus other--such as yardage), intention (Pre=predictive, Ret=retrodictive, Mix=mixture), and divisions of teams ranked. Hom implies Scr. If Hom is used but not Scr, it gets Win+Hom.

I-A,I-AA,II,III,NAIA will be a single link to combined rankings or rankings on a single page.
I-A+I-AA+II+III+NAIA will have a link to the ranking of each division.

On this page you will find the ratings or ranking of each person(s) and the NCAA or NAIA ratings page if different. After those you will find a "More" link which will lead you to other sports ratings, if any, and interesting features on their sites. The most important sites are in bold.

After the following ratings, you will find a date or green light () if they are up to date.
If the ranking or ratings are not yet logical due to insufficient information there will be a yellow light ()
If they are not, the last published date is at the end of the line. Annual ratings will always show the date.
A pair of question marks (??) indicate that the last update is of an uncertain date.

Last Updated: 14-Jan-2008

If your retrodictive ratings are now starting to make sense and you still have a yellow light, send me an email.
