PAC-12: 26-7, .788
Big Ten: 29-8, .784
ACC: 22-9, .710
Big 12: 19-10, .655
American: 18-10, .643
MAC: 18-17, .514
C-USA: 16-20, .444
MWC: 15-19, .441
Indep.: 5-9, .357
Sun Belt: 9-18, .333
"Power 5" non-conference games:
PAC-12: 6-2, .750
Big Ten: 7-5, .583
SEC: 5-6, .455
Big 12: 4-6, .400
ACC: 5-8, .385
American: 3-8, .273
MAC: 4-12, .250
MWC: 3-14, .176
Indep.: 1-5, .167
C-USA: 2-13, .133
Sun Belt: 0-9, .000
"Group of 5" non-conference games:
SEC: 10-0, 1.000
American: 9-1, .900
ACC: 8-1, .889
Big Ten: 20-3, .870
Big 12: 9-3, .750
PAC-12: 8-5, .615
MAC: 5-4, .556
MWC: 3-3, .500
C-USA: 5-6, .455
Indep.: 2-4, .333
Sun Belt: 2-7, .222
FCS games:
SEC: 11-0, 1.000
ACC: 9-0, 1.000
PAC-12: 8-0, 1.000
Big Ten: 2-0, 1.000
Indep.: 2-0, 1.000
C-USA: 9-1, .900
MAC: 9-1, .900
Big 12: 6-1, .857
American: 6-1, .857
MWC: 9-2, .818

Sample size is still to small for there to be a good rating, but after 3 weeks of games, it's the Big Ten with a sizeable advantage over the SEC. After that, PAC-12, Big 12, ACC.

Pretty simple, really. Alabama's scoring margin
Sep 18, 2017, 10:56 AM

for the season was sufficiently greater than Clemson's, so that the total rating had Alabama higher. I didn't particularly like the result, myself, but it is what it is.

Yeah but you didn't take into consideration...

Alabama scored those points against soft SEC defenses or that they lost the head to head against the real #1 team.
YOUR ALGORITHMS NEED BETTER ALGORITHMS.

There is obviously no head-to-head component...

There can't be in a holistic mathematical rating. That's why we don't determine champions with holistic mathematical ratings.

Just curious... why Scoring Margin as the determining factor? There are any number of equally irrelevant statistics... time of possession, total yards, etc.

If you want to go one step beyond W/L, which I wanted to do.

There won't be an individual team rating 'til next week.

Thanks to Irma, a couple of teams in Florida haven't played enough games to make a rating work. I'm dividing by zero through week three.

And, I'm going to save you some time. I think we ALL already know who the best team in the country is right now.
