Mentzer College Football Rankings (Top 25)
Being the week that it is in Columbus, OH I thought it good time to publish my rankings for 2006 season. In case you don't know what week it is in Columbus, the FRONT PAGE of the Columbus Dispatch had a full blown picture of Ohio State vs. Michigan. Not the front page of the Sports section, but the front page of the entire newspaper. People around here seem to think that this game is a big deal.
It is the first time ever that the two teams have met ranked #1 and #2 and I'm pretty sure the first time they have met since 1934 with both teams undefeated. This may actually turn out to be a good game. Anyway, here are the rankings as I have put them together.
As for the rankings, note that Penn State is ranked 17th. This is because they have lost to #1 Michigan (0 losses), #2 Ohio State (0 losses), #5 Wisconsin (1 loss to Michigan), and #6 Notre Dame (1 loss to Michigan).

ReplyDeleteThat would be trade secrets, but for the Free Advice crowd, I'll let you know that involves Wins and Losses of the team, the opponents of the team, and the opponents of the opponents of the team. The spreadsheet used is quite large.
