I mentioned in a previous thread of a program I wrote that recurses through games of who beat who to come up with a score that will rank teams based on who beat who.
1. It only counts FBS team wins against other FBS teams
2. You get 1 pt for every game you win against a FBS team
3. You get 1/2 point for every FBS team *that* team beats
4. Its 1/4 point for 3rd level recursion
5. In event of a loop the program just bails out and stops awarding points
6. The program runs down to whatever level you specify. Obviously the higher level you pick the longer the calcs take.
7. After week 7 I just cut it off at level 50. Arbitrary, I know but that seems like a lot.
8. I get my data from http://prwolfe.bol.ucla.edu/cfootball/scores.htm
So, if you think of what this is doing, you can see what eventually will start to form is a way of comparing what I call "quality wins", or *somewhat* of a strength of schedule, basically using the transitive property "if teamA is better than teamB and teamB is better than teamC then teamA is better than teamC". Now there is a fault to doing this (the circular loop) but for the most part it gives very interesting results, and even moreso as the season progresses.
After week 5 there have been enough games played for things to become interesting:
Dont be a tard here and go "idiot he is saying TAaM is better than OKlahoma". If this is your first reaction start over at the beginning of the post and read.
