ARGH 2021 Power Ratings

The following are the ARGH power ratings for the 2021 season as of 9-26-21. Teams currently included are the 130 Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) teams.

Any forfeits that take place during the season will be ignored and treated as no contests. These ratings are designed to take into account only those games that are actually played.

The estimated home field advantage is .559, or about 3.01 points for an average game. The power ratings represent the chance that the team in question has of beating an average FBS team without regard to location.
