2014 College Football Power Ratings

Last updated: Tuesday, January 13, 2015 - final ratings

I will be updating this page by each Monday night during the season.
These ratings are based on several factors, including win-loss record, schedule
strength, and margin of victory in games.  The most recent games are counted 
with more slightly emphasis than those played earlier in the season.  

The strength of schedule ranking shown here is vs. all opponents and is the 
ranking among the 252 teams in these ratings.

The strength of schedule ranking reflects only games played so far during the 
season, not future opponents.

SS = strength of schedule ranking among all Division I teams (1 is strongest
and 252 is weakest)
