Odd that OU is that far above us and we are such a big favorite in that game.  Big home field advantage for the wild wildcats?

That's part of it. Also a team's winning % factors into their rating but not in a score prediction

Can you just rank the teams based upon who is actually the best? That would make a lot more sense to me.

it might be a pretty far-fetched idea, but i think a team's winning % should factor into its ranking

Well, it really shouldn't. I mean, if you are trying to put together a fair system that actually puts teams into a playoff based upon on-the-field performance, figure it in. If you are trying to rank the teams based upon who is the best, you should just leave it out.

Winning should not hurt a team so if you're a good team you've got nothing to worry about

Btw everyone should watch the northern Illinois game tomorrow. Should be the best mac game all year. High stakes!
