Retrodictive Ratings

NCAA Football Hotlist 25

How to find your perfect rating system:

If you think last week's winner should be higher than the loser
   use the hotlists.
If you think the teams that are the highest scoring should be higher
   use the predictive ratings.
If you think the teams that absolutely hate to lose should be highest
   use the retrodictive ratings.
If you just want to know what I think
   use the combined lists.
