Question About 247 Rankings

[colbs]

Arkansas is rated 22nd with ESPN, 25th with Rivals, and 27th with Scout.  The 247 composite ranking is 30th.  So where do you just find the 247 rankings, not their composite rankings?  If the composite team rankings have Arkansas at 30, then just the 247 rankings I would think would be in the 30 range?

I'm not positive but I think it is the gray number under the composite.

So 247 has Arkansas it looks like at 22.  That means 3 of the devices have Arkansas in the top 25 and Scout has them at 27.  The composite rankings though have Arkansas at 30.

I'm not sure.

I'm not a member on any pay board.  Maybe someone can get Otis or Andrew to explain where to find the ranking.

The differential might also be based on update lag.  Scout is notorious for not updating their ratings.

The underlying truth here, though, is all 4 sites are reasonably consistent with each other in the rankings.  We are about 25 give or take.  Like most years.  Not bad.

I'm sure it's more complex than the average of the 4. I just thought it was weird that all 4 services Arkansas anywhere from 22-27 but the composite was 30.

Hogs typically are 20 to 25 range. Hence the hogs always seem to flirt around that area in the rankings during the season, or used to.

seems like we should be 24 or 25. It's weird. Regardless, if you throw out scout we are #23. Screw Scout, they are the worst.
