[QUOTE="Deleted member 2897, post: 386415"] Unfortunately there is no way around that and nearly all sports, football included. If you just went off of win loss record, UCF would be ranked #1. If you did a computer formula that incorporated strength of schedule, that would be better, but not perfect - you might still have UCF at the top. If you used in-game statistics, you could get crazy outcomes, like GT getting a better rating than Tennessee despite losing the game. I think what works best is what we have - a group of people who look at records and strength of schedule and then makes picks. I don't think there is a computer program that would perfect crunch all this stuff, home versus away, weather, margin of victory, etc that you would leave autonomous. [/QUOTE]
