Forecast scorecard
We grade every final kickoff forecast against the weather that actually showed up. The 2026 scorecard fills in as games are played.
Every graded game
Forecast versus what happened
Grading starts after the first games
Actual game weather is measured up to a week after kickoff, then each final forecast is graded here.

About the scorecard
How does CFB Weather grade its forecasts?
For every completed outdoor game we take the last forecast published before kickoff (up to 48 hours out) and compare it with the measured weather during the game. A rain call counts as right when we forecast at least a 50% chance and it rained, or less than that and it stayed dry.
