Our College Football Rankings, 2026

These are our own rankings, computed from this season's results, not the AP or coaches' polls. Every game is a link from the loser to the winner, weighted by the margin (capped at 28 points). Teams are ranked by their centrality in that network (PageRank), so beating teams that beat good teams counts most. How it works

The win network Arrows point from the loser to the winner. Bigger circles score higher; the most central teams sit in the middle.
