Overall Rationale: Average Transitive Margin of Victory - Adjust power of a team based on expected outcome (power minus opponent's power) and actual outcome (margin of victory) until power values reach stability.https://www.reddit.com/r/CFBAnalysis/comments/dkohyb/average_transitive_margin_of_victory_rankings/Since last week I found out my data source was missing games. I've found a new one. See my comment on the post for accurate rankings, not the OP.
