The 2022 season is within sight, which means it's time to put a bow on the annual crystal-balling exercise known as Future Power Rankings. The team list is here.
If you've already digested top-25 rankings for quarterbacks, offenses and defenses, you have a decent idea of what will follow. The team rankings are a bit different, though, and examine the programs on a macro level for the 2022, 2023 and 2024 seasons. Factors such as coaching changes and stability, and recent on-field/recruiting trajectory, hold more value in this list. The increased importance of the transfer portal and even name, image and likeness can't be discounted when doing a projection such as this one.
