Due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the 2020 CFB season, there will be no weekly GBE College Football Ratings
As there is no consistency among conferences with regards to how many games each team will play, when those games are to be played, and the variety of games that will actually be played, it would be impossible to properly compare teams this season. In addition, it is not be fair to penalize schools who have chosen to (or have been forced to) sit out the 2020 CFB season.
We sincerely hope for a quick "return to normalcy" that will allow for a 2021 CFB season with full participation and normal scheduling. We eagerly await this and will resume our ratings at that point in time.
In the meantime, we encourage everyone to practice safe behavior and to use good sense in their interactions with others until a safe and effective vaccine is developed and deployed. We hope that all of our visitors remain safe from infection and that we all emerge a stronger society.
