The first team rank is overall. The smaller rank is within 1A, 1AA, or Division II; equal ranks appear once. Cross-division games appear with the higher division. Games are ranked by how good the teams are, how close it should be, and a little of the expected scoring. Score is away–home. The pick is the favorite's projected score and its chance, from the ratings before that day. The margin is the overall rating, so the favorite is ahead by that many points. The total still follows what each offense adds and each defense takes away. Green landed within a field goal of the margin and a touchdown of the total. Red is an upset.
