The preseason rankings are phased out week by week and are completely gone by Week 6. At this point all the computers are using are 2014 results and data.


They most definitely have a lasting effect on SOS, beyond the arbitrary 6 week mark you presented.

In which rankings?

The FEI, S&P, etc are all based on data from games played in the current year. They use placeholders from preseason and extrapolated figures until week 6 when they then only use 2014 season data.
