2020 NCAA FBS Top 25 Ranking for Week 3

Given this is a unique NCAA FBS season, I have waited an additional week to create my NCAA FBS Top 25.  Even still, the model is not working as well as normally, given that this past week only had 52 observations as opposed to the 130 if all teams were playing in the FBS.  Since some entire conferences have not played (as of yet), I have also had to make some changes with the conference fixed effects - specifically deleting all of them and just including a constant term.  As such the comparability of this week's models numbers with past years is no longer as accurate.  But I have chosen to keep the model going, and if more teams enter, more of the estimated coefficients will become statistically significant.

Using aggregate data provided from www.cfbstats.com, the Complex Invasion College Football Production Model most productive team in all of the NCAA FBS is the Marshall Thundering Herd.
