Kansas high school football computer rankings (9/30/2024)
The first four weeks of the 2024 Kansas high school football season are in the books and there have been some shakeups in the KSHSAA computer rankings.
SBLive's formula was created using its own linear algebra-based ranking algorithm inspired by the Colley Bias-Free Ranking Method. Colley’s Method was created by Wes Colley, Ph.D., an astrophysicist at the University of Alabama at Huntsville. He devised his algorithm in order to help address the subjectivity and controversy regarding BCS college football selections in the 1990s and early 2000s, using a method that used no subjective variables.
Which teams took the top spot in each of the KSHSAA classifications? Here are SBLive's latest Kansas high school football computer rankings, as of September 30, 2024:
