2017 College Football Power Ratings



Last updated: Tuesday, January 9, 2018 - final ratings


These ratings are based on a mathematical formula that includes several 
factors, including win-loss record, schedule strength, and margin of victory
in games.  The most recent games are counted with slightly more emphasis than
those played earlier in the season.  These ratings take an average of all the
team power ratings in a conference from top to bottom.
