Sorry about skipping a week guys and gals. Turkeying and all...
WEEK 13End of the regular season and on to the championship games (and other games no one really cares that much about).
Top 25Seems reasonable to me. I think Miami is probably a bit overrated by people.
If ChAMOY determined the 4 teams in the playoffs it would be:
1) Oklahoma vs 4) Alabama
2) Clemson vs 3) Wisconsin
(Auburn might have a fighting chance ti squeeze in if they win / Clemson loses...). If we did it by the playoff rules I would prefer (p5 champs + highest non-p5 (not ND) + 2 at large)
projecting out conference winners
1) Oklahoma [1] vs 8)Stanford [16]
3) Wisconsin [3] vs 6) Alabama [4]
4) Georgia [5] vs 5) Ohio State [7]
2) Clemson [2] vs 7) UCF [10]
Those are some tasty games...
Big 12I think it's not too much of a stretch to say that Texas, WVU, KSU, and Tech were all about tied for the 5th best team in the conference. Iowa State should get some credit for some very high quality wins and I think they stand apart from this pack at 4.
Here are each teams best wins and worst losses:
KSU games (raw)KSU games (adj)A plot to show our progress throughout the season. The blue dots are offense, the green defense, and the tan are special teams.
While we weren't a great team by any stretch, we only laid two big eggs this year: Vanderbilt and KU. Luckily only one ended in a loss.
Through it all the Cats ended up with
#39 offense
#64 defense
#10 special teams
If I were to only include P5 + ND teams, KSU ends up ranked 31 out of 65.
No surprise, but KU ends up last...
