There’s a fine line between rankings and ratings, and “NCAA Football 13” does better at the former. While many of the team ratings -- which show how well the teams will perform in the game -- are confusing, the top 25 rankings are more reasonable. The game’s top-25 still won’t line up with real-life polls, which are almost certain to have either LSU or USC at No. 1 (as BlogPoll’s done already).

Notre Dame and Texas, which have really, really high ratings in the game, show up in the 20s in the actual rankings. This could mean that a lot of simulated seasons will see the two shoot up the ranks. In general, though, this offers a better stab at the nation’s best teams than the ratings list does.
