Here are this week’s composite rankings. I am thrilled to announce that we have Wisconsin ranked #1. My composite rankings aggregate five rankings (using a Markov chain — hooray!) and all five have Wisconsin football ranked #1 and Clemson ranked #2. Oklahoma is ranked #4-#11, Alabama is ranked #3-#6, and Auburn is ranked #5-#7 in the individual rankings. With only one week of games left, it’s surprising that there is so much disagreement between the different ranking models. This is evidence that it’s not completely obvious who should make it into the college football playoff this late into the season. The excitement will continue 🙂 Good luck to the Badgers!
