College Football Rankings: 1 To 131 After Week 3
College Football News 2022 college football rankings after Week 3 for all 131 teams with results and who’s up next week.
Thanks for screwing everything up, Bowling Green.
These rankings are about as close to the pin as they can possibly get considering the goal is to always respect the results.
If Team A beats Team B and Team B beats Team C, then it goes A then B and then C, if there are no other variables – this all gets blown up as the season goes on.
And then Bowling Green beats Marshall in overtime.
So do we just reject the Marshall win over Notre Dame, especially considering how mediocre the Irish have been?
We punted on that a bit – giving more credit to the Marshall win over Notre Dame than the Bowling Green victory on Saturday – but all of the other results after three weeks and a Week 0 are taken into account.
As always, these will change wildly based on the big wins, tough losses, and head-to-head matchups.
