This Week's Predictions

College Current Strength Ratings 2008
Some fans are misunderstanding my ratings.  They are not meant to mirror the polls or determine a national championship and are not based on season long performance.  The purpose of the ratings is to determine how well a team is playing RIGHT NOW and to give an accurate prediction and point spread on the next game the team will play.  The ratings give a numerical measure to how well the team is playing now.  A current strength rating.
 
(to find the predicted outcome between any two teams, add three points to the home team and the difference between the two would be the predicted pointspread)
