Hey, we're ranked in something!
Penn State may not be ranked in any national polls (which is 100% correct, they should be nowhere close to any of them), but they are ranked in a different format.
For those of you unaware of what the S&P+ ratings are, they are a rating system developed by SB Nation's own Bill Connelly. There's no, truly easy way to explain how these rankings are calculated, so I'll just try to give you a short explanation.
These rankings are made by compiling a team's success rate and its equivalent points per play.
