Billingsley
Sounds like a report for butlers, not college football

What's interesting is that Minnesota has the history and the ability/resources etc. to dominate, minus the recruiting grounds.

Out of curiosity, I'd like to know if the games that Alabama had to forfeit (NCAA decreed) were counted. I'm not implying that they shouldn't be, just how they were accounted for.

Minnesota above Florida, A&M, Miami?
Seems odd, but their strength is based on 50 to 80 years ago...they were a dominant team in the 30's and 40's, winning 5 national championships...and then they added another one in 1960. If current trends continue, I'd think Minnesota will steadily fall while the teams you mention will steadily rise...but since this is based on 140+ years of data, it'll probably take a while...

The most notable difference is that Billingsley has Fsu at 11 whereas cfdw has them at 22. The latter is much closer to the truth than the former. 11 is laughable to be honest

Not sure if serious. Idaho over Rutgers?

That is a pretty bad list, there is no real justification to have UF ranked that low. We are ranked behind Wisconsin a team who has fewer wins and no national titles.

The schedule points of cfdw is killing FSU. FSU didn't start football till 1947. Until 1960, we were basically an FCS program if even that. We didn't play many ranked teams until the 70s and we were fodder for Florida and Miami like every year. It wasn't until the 80s that we began to rack up some big time wins. FSU has a lot of garbage wins from the early part of our program when we were nobodies and its not like the ACC is tougher than the SEC. With all that considered, the websites aren't updated for 2013 ,so we should see a nice boost regardless.

I sincerely hope the papers that you have written in college do not read in the same fashion, Prof. I was ready to stick a fork in my eyes by the second paragraph.
My college papers are worse. Arcane topic, language, and attention paid to details/sourcing and all the proper shite.
ETA: And wanting to stick a fork in your eyes means I did my job well. You got the Dooley experience.
