How it works This FBS-specific model blends 454 current-season games with 1,320 games from 1938, 1937, 1936. Current-season influence is 100% for the rating relationship, 31% for home-field advantage, and 48% for the error range. Before week-eight recalibration, probabilities are limited to 5–95% to reflect early-season uncertainty.
