How it works This FBS-specific model blends 99 current-season games with 739 games from 1917, 1916, 1915. Current-season influence is 100% for the rating relationship, 9% for home-field advantage, and 17% for the error range. Before week-eight recalibration, probabilities are limited to 5–95% to reflect early-season uncertainty.
