Power Ratings Matter- Here's Why

[achirico2]

Here is a pretty cool article explaining different power ratings and how you can benefit from using a variation of them. https://collegefootballchatblog.wordpress.com/2017/07/23/which-power-ratings-should-we-use/

Good resource to capture several different sets of Power Rankings.
Appreciate the link to this blog.

I use several of them here and like to track their accuracy yearly by team (and conference).

Great article! Another tool I use is the 'college football prediction tracker' which converts all of the computer rankings from the Massey site and applies them to the current weeks match-ups throughout the season. It gives a feel for what the consensus line would be with input from all of the computer programed rankings out there. I've found many of them give too much weight to the last seasons results, especially early in the season. Then again, it is one of many tools with value to consider as you try to put everything together to beat 'The Man'.

I love it the feedback. Hopefully we can do well in CFB this season

While I'm not disagreeing conceptually on the usage of power ratings whatsoever, however I would be cautious using ALL of the sources listed be the author as some are clearly better than others. Good luck!
