quantum_jedi Ballot for 2024 Week 8
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Oct. 14, 2024, 11:42 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Wins and losses are weighted by the difference in "rank" between the winner/loser and the median team. Scaled such that beating strong teams matters more than beating weak teams, and losing to bad teams is worse than losing to strong teams. Winning is weighted slightly more than losing. Results are now (week 4) scaled by offensive and defensive points per drive efficiencies, and strength of schedule determined by cumulative opponents score. Preseason rankings are weighted by returning production, talent composite, and previous season success. Next five out: Illinois, Syracuse, Washington State, Oklahoma, Army
