Overall Rationale: The poll is a combination of win%, opponent win%, opponent opponent's win%, and point differential. Wins over FCS teams functionally do not exist for any part of the model, the various win%s mentioned included as well as point differential. Losses to FCS teams are included as regular games, Team-by-team reasons are Rank%, previous rank, and change from last week. For example, a few weeks ago, Texas Tech had a .922 rating. They were 7th the prior week, and moved up three spots, so their reason read ".922, 7, 3". Dropped out: #26 Iowa, from 24, #32 Memphis, from #25, and #36 Louisville, from #23.
