GRR: Rankings
Not much happened this week and yet a lot did.
The NCR D2 Playoff picture is set. Are we extremely confident in how the Power Index rates and handicaps D2 games? Not yet.
We didn't expect this to be a particularly difficult ranking to update this week, but it was.
Well the rankings took a bit of a hit in playoff time.
This isn't the first time that's happened, and the reason is even more pronounced—we don't see a lot of teams cross over from one conference to another, or even from one division within a conference to the other side, and in this post-COVID-shutdown time that lack of crossover data has been even tougher to make up for.
Texas A&M enters the top 25 and we could see Army make it into the top 4, or higher, after they face Lindenwood in a week.
Of course Army has to deal with Air Force first of all.
