Margin of victory shouldnt be included because it makes teams that play nobody a lot higher than they should be. ie Purdue and Virginia.

Margin of victory only applies when playing a team in my top 40. Margin of Loss however applies for all 117 DIV 1A teams and 1AA. |

We played well on offense and defense but when you turn the ball over 5 times even though one was bad call and cost Nebraska the deciding touchdown. I still believe that really didnt cause us the game completely because of the turnovers that we had the rest of the game. You cant turn the ball over 5 times and think you can beat a good team. |

Oddly enough there was a big drop off in the rating after Nebraska. This is how it was:
28. Nebraska---------(68.22)
29. Alabama----------(64.18)
This was the 2nd biggest gap between any two div 1A teams.

If Nebraska's QB can make beter decisions some of the time and throw the ball away instead of trying to make play and that will cut down turnover and we will have a good season. If not it will be long season

Out of a personal curiosity for my team, where did TCU end up in your rankings, tigerbait?

Cool. Nice to know we're just outside of the top 25. I think that's about accurate right now. If we defeat Texas Tech this Saturday, I personally think we deserve top 25 standing.
Tell me, is SoS a consideration?

Tell me, is SoS a consideration? Yes I do consider it. I do a weekly SOS ranking for all 117 DIV-1A teams. I just go by that. So far TCU is #72 in that, but CUSA will be strong this year so I would expect that number to come up some. Texas Tech is a good non-conference opponent (as long as their QB plays well this season), and should help that ranking a little bit more. |
