In recent ears, Massey Ratings has had their ups & downs. They were recently licensed to USA Today for high school football. The down side is that coaches have very little opportunity to assist in the full reporting of results, stats, rosters, and schedules. They seem to rely on the spotty results of their national team of news journalists.
But since this is still for the most part "preseason", we will compare the Top 25 rankings and order for the two rival ranking services. NHFCS cannot yet employ Massey formulas because USA Today omits many prominent homeschool teams from their rankings.
