2023 College Football Rankings (as of 11/14/2023)

For the Opp W/L, the record for non-FBS schools is set at 1-19, double the expected W/L for those schools - which currently have a cummulative record of 4-110 against FBS schools this season.

The rank score is calculated by taking 0.6 * Win Pct + 0.5 * Opp Win Pct + 0.4 * Pyth Win Pct.

Interesting notes: Georgia had played a really weak schedule up until late, and are still only ranked 5th. Liberty and James Madison are behind only two one loss teams in Texas and Alabama. Troy has played decently well this season, to be in the top 25. At the other end, two MAC school rivals - Kent State and Akron - are the worst FBS teams in the country.
