2026-27 men's college basketball
College basketball ratings, from the roster up
Every Division I team rated from its roster, player by player: who returns, who transferred in, who is a freshman, and what each is projected to give. The preseason number is frozen before the first game and scored in March; in season, results take over.

A team's rating is points per 100 possessions better than an average Division I team on a neutral floor: +30 is elite, 0 is average, and the gap between two teams is the margin the model expects on a neutral floor. Offense and defense are the two halves, each against the average, and the rating is their sum. Hover a column heading for its definition, or read the glossary.
