Data Criteria for the College Football Rankings and Won/Loss Records
There are many college football rankings systems out there using many different methods. Another thing to keep in mind is what data are being used and how are certain types of data being treated. For example, is the ranking system exclusively for Division I-A or both Division I-A and I-AA? And if it's only for Division I-A are the games against Division I-AA teams included and if they are how are they treated? If the ranking system takes home field advantage into account, how are games at neutral sites treated? The answers to these questions will influence the outcome of the rankings.
Below are the criteria I use for my rankings:
