Welcome Back! Today I'll talk mostly about the out of conference results from Weeks Zero and One. Interconference results This year, I plan to use a chart, which should more clearly highlight how each conference is doing. It will be organized by their overall OOC record. Unfortunately, you mayneed to scroll to see the last few columns. Conference Overall Pct Rank vs FBS Pct Rank vs P4 Pct Rank vs G6 Pct Rank SEC 16-0 1.000 1 10-0 1.000 1 3-0 1.000 1 7-0 1.000 1 Independents 2-0 1.000 2 1-0 1.000 1 1-0 1.000 1 0-0 .000 10 Big Ten 18-2 .900 3 14-2 .875 2 2-1 .667 2 12-1 .923 5 Big 12 13-3 .813 4 4-3 .571 3 2-2 .500 3 2-1 .667 7 Sun Belt 10-4 .714 5 2-4 .333 7 0-3 .000 7 2-1 .667 7 American 9-5 .643 6 4-4 .500 5 1-4 .200 4 3-0 1.000 3 ACC 8-5 .615 7 6-5 .545 4 1-5 .167 5 5-0 1.000 2 MWC 6-6 .500 8 4-6 .400 6 0-4 .000 9 4-2 .667 6 CUSA 5-8 .385 9 0-8 .000 11 0-3 .000 7 0-5 .000 10 Pac 12 2-6 .250 10 1-5 .167 8 0-5 .000 10 1-0 1.000 4 MAC 3-10 .231 11 1-9 .100 9 1-7 .125 6 0-2 .000 10 F...

Power Rankings 9/8/26

By
Welcome Back! As you might expect, we had quite a bit of movement after the 1st full week of games. We even had some movement within the Top 10, as Texas moves up to #3 and LSU moves in at #10, while Michigan drops from #9 to #11. Other than movement within itself, the Top 25 retains the same teams. We also have a new team at the bottom, as Charlotte drops to #138 from 137, thanks to UMass moving up to #135 from last place. Here are the teams that moved 8 spots or more (biggest movers highlighted): Ga Tech -15 to #54 UCLA +11 to #55 New Mexico +11 to #59 Texas State -9 to #72 Toledo -19 to #73 Colorado +18 to #76 Mich St -14 to #79 Miami, Oh -9 to #83 WKU -12 to #89 Okla St -19 to #95 Rutgers -11 to #100 Tulsa +15 to #102 Colo St +10 to #108 C Mich -8 to #109 Nevada +16 to #110 CCU -8 to #14 FAU -8 to #116 Utah St -34 to #124 Bowling Green -14 to #134 As a reminder, I use a points based system. Teams start out with a certain number of points based on 12 different factors, and those poi...

TWIF Notes 9/7/26

By
Welcome Back! Happy Labor Day! What a fun Week 1! As I stated earlier, my goal is to watch every team for at least one offensive and one defensive drive this season- no way I could watch every team for a whole game. So far, I have seen 66 of the 138 FBS teams play (47.8%), with 39 of the 68 P4 teams (57.4%) and 27 of the 70 G6 teams (38.6%). Add tonight's game and I'll be at 68 of 138 (49.3%) and 41 of 68 P4 (60.3%). That's not bad for the 1st 2 weekends. I won't watch much this coming weekend, as I will be attending the Navy at FAU game on Saturday for FAU Band Day.  Here are my thoughts from Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. And don't forget: there's a game tonight! 1. UMass ended a 16-game losing streak, and they did it by dominating what was thought to be a pretty decent Rutgers team. So now we wonder: are the Minutemen that good, or are the Scarlet Knights that bad? My guess is it's a little of both. UMass plays 2 FCS teams and then at Sac State, ...
