My job at @CBSSports involves watching a ton of college basketball and football. And I eat free Chick-fil-A thanks to my wife. 15-year old me is quite proud.

Our annual @CBSSportsCBB list of the top 101 players is LIVE.
The @SEC leads all leagues w/ 30 players. Seniors are the most populated class (38 selections).
Teams with the most players on the list: Duke, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, St. John's, Texas.

A true college football resume ranking. Wins. Losses. Locations. Nothing else.
The numbers below each team = how many more victories they have vs. what the average No. 25 ranked team would have against the same schedule.
Notable exclusions: Georgia is No. 18, unbeaten Utah is No. 20 (best win = at Iowa State)

Appreciate the engagement on this.
If/when Kentucky/Mississippi State falter, so will Alabama's resume.
As it stands, Tide are one of two CFB teams with two top-25 road wins. Bama's resume ceiling is also limited moving forward because its got a bunch of uselessness coming (A&M, Vandy, Chattanooga).
Full game-by-game breakdown for the top 15 here. 👇

Yes.
If it were based on the opponent's power rating, a win at Bama would be more valuable than a win at UK.
I don't think the non-SEC masses are ready for that level of "bias."
So, it's based on the CBS Sports 138, which is more of a traditional ranking. Bama 12, UK 13.
It's a spin on CBB's WAB, which is vital in comparing teams with wildly different schedules around the bubble.
Something like this is desperately needed for the 24-team CFP era.
Not out here saying if the CFP committee met today that it should put Bama at No. 3. It's a tool.
Average top 25 is a flawed standard unless your goal is just to establish a cutoff around #13. Which more or less is what we’re doing in this sport now so I guess fair but you should educate people on that context
BYU is...
-- one of three teams in CFB with four wins over top-60 opposition (using CBS Sports 138)
-- one of only six with two wins vs. top 25 teams (Notre Dame/Arizona).
-- of those six (^) It's also the only one without a loss.
Tide are one of two teams in college football with two top-25 road wins (UK/MsSt). Ohio State is the other.
Bama is one of four teams with 4 victories vs. top-65 opposition (BYU, Houston and Kentucky are the others).
Losses to No. 4 UGA/at No. 10 Tennessee aren't killers.
Alabama has the No. 3 resume. It's actually No. 12 in the CBS Sports 138, which is the baseline.
But sure, it's a huge win. It means enough to keep Georgia in the top 20 even after a home loss against an unranked team.
What else here makes you think Georgia should be above any of the teams in the top 15?
W vs. Tennessee State
W vs. No. 125 Western Kentucky
W @ No. 81 Arkansas
W vs. No. 40 Oklahoma
W vs. No. 88 Vanderbilt
W @ No. 12 Alabama
L vs. No. 30 Auburn

This is the one that’s actually 100% ridiculous. Wouldn’t even be eligible under 5 for 5!
According to CBS Sports research, Texas is the 1st team since 1961 to enter a game as No. 1 and proceed to lose their next two games each against unranked opponents.
Kentucky hit 12 threes in its exhibition win tonight, a threshold it reached in just 6 of 36 games last season.
Call it the Milan Momcilovic effect.
Today's CFP expansion news only underscores the need for a transparent resume metric.
When it comes to sorting out 19-25, the committee is going to tie itself in knots trying to determine the nebulous "best" teams.
