2016-17 College Basketball Power Ratings


Last updated: Tuesday, April 4, 2017 - final ratings

I will be updating this page by each Monday & Friday 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 slightly more emphasis than those played earlier in the season.  To
determine the approximate point spread between any two teams, simply compare
the power ratings of the two teams and add 4 points to the home team.

Team records and ratings by conference


 * = ineligible for NCAA-sponsored postseason play
** = ineligible for conference tournament and NCAA-sponsored postseason play
