  • Week 12 Elo Rankings

    A lot of cancellations and postponements plus several blowouts led to a somewhat forgettable Week 11 in College Football. However, we still saw some movement as Indiana went to 4-0 in the Big Ten, moving up to 19th in the Elo Rankings (they are up to 10th in the AP Poll, which has proven to be unwieldy in 2020).

    Penn State have fallen out of the Top 25 and will be lucky to win two games this season. Clemson remain at #1, although barely, and with their remaining strength of schedule, expect Alabama or Ohio State to surpass them in the final weeks of the season heading into the College Football Playoff. View the full rankings below.
