bcsinfo — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:24:17 +0000

As promised, the analysis page has been updated for week 1 of the college football season. Technically, Colley has also published rankings, but it should be self-evident why they are not included in the table.

Coaches Poll – plus Billingsley and Sagarin rankings – out

bcsinfo — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 18:06:27 +0000

Unsurprisingly, there were no first-place vote changes in the Coaches Poll. Massey published on Monday morning, but has yet to consider the results of the two Monday games, so his rankings for week 1 are incomplete.

A comparison of the three (or four) published BCS ranking components will be put up tomorrow on the BCS Central analysis page.

The “Top 25 teams of the BCS era against all FBS Conferences” page has been updated.
