Power Ratings — 2026 · Preseason 265 teams

Preseason = each team's 2025 finish regressed toward the mean. It can't yet see roster turnover, the portal, or recruiting; it updates as 2026 games are played. Power = points vs. an average D1 team (Off + Def), FBS and FCS on one scale. A model rating, not a betting edge.
