How it works This FBS-specific model blends 563 current-season games with 1,798 games from 1983, 1982, 1981. Current-season influence is 100% for the rating relationship, 36% for home-field advantage, and 53% for the error range. Before week-eight recalibration, probabilities are limited to 5–95% to reflect early-season uncertainty.
