Week 5: Best Offenses in NCAA Football

Yesterday I posted on the Top 25 NCAA FBS teams in terms of the complex invasion sports model.  Today I am going to look at the Top 25 NCAA FBS teams in terms of scoring (or offense).  Thus I am only looking at points scored using the four key factors of NCAA FBS production:  acquiring the ball, maintaining possession, moving the ball and scoring efficiency.  I also make allowances for different conferences.  I do not adjust for strength of schedule for reasons stated previously.  For those wondering about last season, here is the blog on strength of schedule and NCAA team performance.

Here is the list of the 2012 Top 25 NCAA "offenses" through week #5.
