The Rank-o-Matic is Back

After a year-long hiatus, I’m happy to announce that the Rank-o-Matic is back! Deep down in your heart, you’ve always yearned to know what my laptop thinks of the current college football season, and now, once again, you can. New features this time around include full-precision summation (thanks to Raymond Hettinger) and inter-weekly comparisons showing each game’s change in value and each team’s change in rank order. I’ve also temporarily stopped special-casing games against non-Division IA schools, a tweak I’ll be monitoring as the season progresses.

Big thanks again to James Howell, who keeps an awesome historical index of college football seasons, and whose current season listing I use as the source for the Rank-o-Matic. He’s also got a ranking of his own.

Questions or comments can be sent to me at jfager -at- gmail. Enjoy!


I certainly do care what your laptop thinks haha. I like the unbiased calculation given by the computers.
