How it works This FBS-specific model blends 593 current-season games with 1,759 games from 1993, 1992, 1991. Current-season influence is 100% for the rating relationship, 37% for home-field advantage, and 54% for the error range. Before week-eight recalibration, probabilities are limited to 5–95% to reflect early-season uncertainty.
