Just for grins, here is the graph of the college football season so far. This is every game between all 719 teams. First, I resolved all beatloops. Then, I took out all the teams that weren’t in Div1A, while still respecting the game outcomes. Meaning, if A->B->C->D, but B and C aren’t in Div1A, I [...]
We’ve got some miscellaneous information for the end of the college football season.
First, here is the Top 40 Graph for the teams as they existed just before the bowl season. Sorry it’s not very legible, I ran into a width restriction, but you can basically make the names out.
Remember that the teams that are [...]
Lots of beatpaths news today. We found the new college football data, so we have the new Top Forty for Division 1-A.
Again, the teams that are floating by themselves are the ones that have no beatpaths to anyone else in the Top Forty. They all have plenty of beatpaths to the other Division [...]
Well, this is more academic than anything else, because it doesn’t include any of this weekend’s games (still waiting on Massey Ratings to come back online). This is all from last week. But I’ve managed to create a process to create a beatpath graph for the top forty ranked teams in NCAA Division [...]
Here’s the Beatpaths Top 25 for just before Week 13 of the NCAA Division 1-A.
Again, grain of salt – for now, I’m using NCAA to try out some new algorithm variants. This one is based on beatpower, but it attempts to drag teams a bit closer to the average strength of the teams in [...]
All right, we have a quick look now at the college rankings for just the Division 1-A teams. This time I’m using the BCS as a tiebreaker for when teams’ BeatPower rankings are identical. Here’s the graph, just to get a general visual idea (sorry, it’s big enough that I had to shrink [...]
Here’s the beatpath graph for all friggin’ 712 teams in NCAA college football (according to Massey) through 11/5/05.
You have fun with that.
Yeah, I know you can’t see a thing. It’s pretty damn funny in my opinion. Rest assured that USC and other teams you’d expect are near the top of the [...]
