JOE PINKOS’ POWER RATINGS
Florida High School Football
FORECAST FOR WEEK 10
Joe Pinkos’ Power Ratings are calculated by a formula based on strength of
opposition and margin of victory with greater weight given to recent games.
The forecasted margin of victory for each game is determined by subtracting
the power rating of the lower-rated team from the power rating of its higher-
rated opponent.
Game forecasts are sorted by classification of favorite and listed
alphabetically. The underdog’s classification is noted for inter-classification
games.
