About
Rankings Strength of Schedule

Rating:  The team's offensive, defensive, and overall rating. Team ratings indicate actual team ability and can be used to predict head-to-head matchups with high accuracy. Offensive and Defensive ratings are scaled from 0 to 50. Ranking is based on total offensive and defensive rating.

SOS:  Strength of Schedule, calculated as the difficulty for a team to reach 6, 9, or 12 wins, respectively. Only regular season games are considered, not including conference championships. Each SOS column is scaled from 0 to 10. Explain win-based Strength of Schedule.

SOR:  Strength of Record, based on the number of wins earned and the team's strength of schedule. SOR is a measure of how difficult it is to earn a team's wins against their schedule, and is therefore useful for determining whether a team has earned a place in the playoffs or a bowl game. SOR is a better indicator of a team's past achievement rather than their predicted future performance. Each SOR column is scaled from 0 to 10.

BS:  SOR at the time of bowl selection. Regular season and conference championship games are included.
Final:  SOR at the end of the season. All games are included.
