Below are this year's dynasty rankings. Some explanation is in order, huh? So...one of the disadvantages with this system is that the year that falls outside out 5-season window sometimes has a huge impact, much more than what just happened in the most recent season. This is an example of that. Tiffin and N Colorado have been battling it out for the top spot, then just fell down to 3 & 4. Yes, West Ga and SIUE both just came off F4 seasons. But also, season 103 in which N Colorado and Tiffin faced off in the finals fell off.
In about 3 more seasons, I'll have enough recorded to provide both 5 and 15 season dynasty reports, like we have going on over in Iba. That way, we can see both the more dynamic 5-year model, as well as the more consistent 15-year model.
This season, not to ramble on, not only did we see a change at the top with West Ga and SIEU overtaking the top two spots, but we also saw big jumps from Texas A&M Kingsville after their title, Grand Canyon, and St. Mary's.
