Welcome to CHIngon's Polymetric Objective Team Listing Experiment (ChiPOTLE)!
ChiPOTLE is not really a predictor, it is a listing sorted by accomplishments. Teams listed to the top "deserve" to be there based on their statistical numbers and the teams they have beaten.
Now that we are about a month into the season, things are getting clear enough to use ChiPOTLE. Of course we will use OE and DE (points per drive on offense and defense), but boy oh boy are there are a couple of major changes! There are now two more metric used to calculate the expected Win % (WP):
OS: Offensive Stamina --- number of points scored on offense per drive when staring from deep within your own territory
DS: Defensive Stability --- number of points given up by the defense per drive when the opponent is starting from deep withing their own territory
And
Acc: Accomplishments --- on a scale between 0 and 1, how impressive are your wins? There is no credit for simply playing good teams, you must beat the team to get points here. The team with 1 for that week has the best accomplishments.
ChiPOTLE is calculated by taking the WP (based on OE, DE, OS, and DS) and combining that with Acc.
The Top 25:The Big 12Sadly KSU's offensive woes are quite clear (even more so on long drives), but in better news the defense looks pretty good.
KSU is a "better" team on paper vs Tech, but win no real accomplishments on our side we are ranked slightly lower.
