Week 6 Power Rankings

Here are my power rankings after week 6 of the college football season.  As we move deeper into October, some teams are beginning to separate themselves, both at the top and at the bottom.  A few reminders:

1) These are my rankings, and no one else's.  While my formula isn't perfect, I'm enjoying seeing how it works.  I have a few tweaks planned for next year already, and may make more.
2) Wins count a lot, losses a little, and not playing count as nothing, so you will see a team that has a bye week drop in the standings.  You will also see teams that lose move up, and teams that win move down.  A lot depends on how the teams around them did.  This will all even out over the course of the season (I hope), except that the hurricanes caused several cancellations.  This is another tweak I will need to make to my formula.
3)  The plus or minus after the team is how many spaces they moved up or down from last week.  An E means they stayed in the same place.
4) Because of how my formula is set up, there are a lot of ties for positions.  Hopefully, this will diminish as the season wears on.  I'm also hoping that the changes I've decided on will alleviate these next year, or at least reduce their occurrences.
5) These rankings are not predictive.  A team ranked higher would not necessarily win against a team ranked lower.  However, I hope to be pretty accurate as to the teams that make the playoffs.
