For a combined Division I-A/I-AA list, see: http://www.cae.wisc.edu/~dwilson/byrate98.html
My system has changed. It now includes a small weight (0.05) for wins that lower a rating and loses that raise a rating. These games use to be ignored. This, in effect, gives some weight to the strength of a team's entire schedule.
A team's rating is the average of its opponents' ratings plus 100 for a win or minus 100 for a loss. Wins that lower the rating and losses that raise the rating count one twentieth as much as the other games. Post-season games count double. These ratings are in the public domain and may be freely published.
