The College Football News 2019 college football rankings after Week 11.
As always, the CFN Rankings are based on the results, schedules, and head-to-head matchups as much as possible.
Now this gets REALLY fun.
Still go off of results more than the old eye-test whenever possible, there are a few theoretical calls made up top. Overall, everything is starting to work itself out.
Also, as always, if you have an issue or a question about a ranking, go ahead and tweet us @ColFootballNews and we’ll try to figure it out/explain. If you see something that looks REALLY off, look at the schedule and follow the trail from there – or notice the one horrific loss or wildly big win.
