We will look at 2 different sets of Top 25. The first one is the Power ranking. This is purely a look at the teams ratings, it has some correspondence with how they may finish, but it’s not a projection of where they finish. The 2nd takes that and looks at schedules (W\/L and SOS) and projects how they will finish to end the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
