ES Power Rating · Football

Early season: these ratings lean on each program’s last three seasons until this year’s games say otherwise. Treat them as a starting point, not a verdict.

Through week 1 · 177 games rated · home edge +1.48 · computed Thu, Sep 17 · prior from 2022-23, 2021-22, 2020-21 · How it works →

Records are the official season record, the same as on each school’s page: a forfeit counts, a Seeding Only replacement does not. The rating itself uses only played games; hover a record to see how many.
