It might be amusing to do a Power Rankings Power Ranking:
Take all the power rankings, and compare them to the actual record of each team in its next 10 or 20 games. For a control, rank teams strictly by their place in the standings. See which power rankings, if any, do a better job than the current standings of predicting future results.

But esteemed psuedo journalist/blogger Boaty McBoatface knows better lol
