College Football Playoff (CFP) rankings are produced by the selection committee responsible for assigning teams to the national championship playoff bracket. FEI ratings represent opponent-adjusted per possession scoring efficiency. Strength of record ratings are the difference between actual wins and expected wins against the schedule for an elite team (EWD), a good team (GWD), and an average team (AWD). Strength of game efficiency ratings are the difference between retrodictive wins and expected wins based on net points per drive (PDW), net available yards percentage (AYW), net yards per play (PPW), and net drive success rate (SRW)..
