Hi, my names Ross and I’ve been doing my own Power rankings for some years now and I thought I’d let people see mine. My power rankings are not the cheep imitation of the College Football poll system that you see dolled out at such sites as CBS sports or ESPN or Sports Ill. My power rankings are a pure point system in which teams gain or lose points based on the final score the game. So teams that win could fall in the Rankings and a team that loses could gain in the poll. But before thinking that it sounds backwards just think that the quality of the competition is the biggest factor when ranking change. That and the final score of the game. Jeff Sagarin Of USATODAY has his own NFL ratings. He gives a much more detailed report on this kind of power rating system as well as other systems. For those who are interested @ This link
He does state on his site “PURE POINTS is also known as PREDICTOR, BALLANTINE, RHEINGOLD, WHITE OWL and is the best single PREDICTOR of future games.â€Â
So here is how I have the teams ranked coming into the 1st week of the season. It’s not how I think the teams should be ranked, rather their power ranking is very close to where they finished last year. It does not take into account of players gone, or coaching changes from last year so I do expect it to move quite a bit after the first week. If you have any comments or questions please ask.
