Im sure you may have posted this before, but what all is taken into account to arrive at these ranks?

I have a formula that basically compares all the games between Division I only anymore. I was too difficult to keep up with D-II and others. So sub-DI games are ignored. Everything else is weighed against a ranking I do for the whole division and then sort out the teams I have flagged as The South. Been doing it for about 8 years now and sharing with friends only, thought I'd start posting it for real this year.

It was basically my way of taking on the Lambert poll and giving the Southern teams something to talk about if they wanted. I've considered adding in the Mid-Majors from FBS at times but not quite sold on that yet.

Savannah State's playing their heart out these days.
