First, I follow college basketball very casually (classic UGA fan). That disclaimer out of the way, I recently read about the NCAA basketball committee’s team sheets, which include a number of typical stats along with 7 ratings and quad wins. I thought, why not give it a try for CFB?

These stats are summarized here and discussed here.

Assuming this works for a CFB “objective” framework, let’s establish what the CFB equivalent for each should be and then rank the teams.

Power ratings:

  • KenPom: use SP+
  • Bart Torvik: use Sagarin (I believe Torvik replaced the prior Sagarin basketball rankings)
  • ESPN BPI: use ESPN FPI
  • Power rating average = simple average of the 3 ranks

Resume ratings:

  • KPI: Colley
  • Wins Above Bubble: FEI EL SOR
  • ESPN BPI SOR: ESPN FPI SOR
  • Resume average = simple average of the 3 ranks

Quad Wins

  • Quad wins established using team ratings per Sagarin adjusted for home field advantage. Quad 1 targets wins over teams ranked ~1-15 at home, ~1-20 neutral and ~1-25 away, etc. etc.
  • Once quad wins and losses are established, I assign an arbitrary weight to quad wins (+4 for quad 1 down to +1 for quad 4) and quad losses (-1 for quad 1 to -4 for quad 4)
  • Quad wins rank = ranking of total points
