Overall Rationale: These rankings are a pure resume based points system. Teams are assigned a tier based on their rating (1-7). Points are gained for wins, subtracted for losses, based on the opponents tier. Small modifiers for game closeness (Win/Loss Bonuses/Penalties = WB, WP, LB, LP) and SOS based on Opponent's record. | If two teams are next to each other in the rankings, and have played head to head, the head to head winner will be ranked higher, regardless of points. | | | | Week 13 | Biggest Riser: Oklahoma (+21) | Biggest Drop: UCF (-26) | New teams: Memphis | Dropped from rankings: Colorado (19) | Next 5: Louisiana, Colorado, Illinois, Duke, Navy | Worst Team Kent State (-276) | | | | Playoff projections *Conference Autobid | | Rose: 1.
