New ‘Sustained Win Rate’ Metric Ranks USC 18th in College Football
A College Sports Wire metric called Sustained Win Rate (SWR) evaluates programs from 2014 to 2025, using schedule‑adjusted wins, recency weighting, consistency scoring and a final weighted score. USC lands 18th, reflecting its recent performance under Lincoln Riley while hinting at missed opportunities from standout seasons by Sam Darnold and Caleb Williams.
