College football is here, and after 12 weeks of action, it’s time to look at who has the toughest (and easiest) roads ahead of them for the rest of the season. For the first time, College Football Network has painstakingly gone through every team’s schedule — welcome Kennesaw State — and analyzed those roads ahead for each FBS team.
Introducing: The first-of-its-kind CFN Strength of Schedule for the 2024 season.
College Football Strength of Schedule for 2024
CFN’s exclusive strength of schedule metric was crafted carefully using as many resources as possible ahead of the 2024 season. And, now, it’s updated with a look at who has the toughest schedule ahead of them after 12 week’s worth of action.
Using a bevy of metrics such as returning production, roster projections, coaching staff, incoming talent, home-field advantage, and other factors, the CFN SOS analyzes which teams have the most difficult and easiest schedules this season.
CFN’s strength of schedule metric included each team’s transfer portal classes, valued quarterbacks returning to their school, and continuation among the coaching staffs into the ranking. And after the first 12 weeks of action, we have input the success rates from each team so far this year to help round out the numbers and project the rest of the way through.
These factors all awarded schedule difficulty more heavily based on merit and projection, as opposed to looking back at results from last season, though those results were factored in moderately.
Of note, we have put in a few new numbers below to help paint the picture. We have each team’s Strength of Schedule Rank from the preseason numbers, and that is accompained by our preseason win-loss record projection for each team.
Updated after Week 12, we now have the projected win-loss record for the rest of the season with locked in data from the 12 weeks worth of action and results factored in. The remaining games on each team’s schedule is factored into the remaining strength of schedule rank as well.
But first, we’re going to do something a bit different. You’ll find the strength of schedule below just like you normally have this season, listed with the teams ranked by remaining strength of schedule. However, now that we’re looking at resumes, it’s imperative that we find the total difficulty of each team’s season so far.
So, knowing what we know of every team, we have a better gauge of how good every team’s victories have been this season. Again, find the remaining ranks below this, but here is how every team ranks in Total Strength of Schedule this season.
