Each week during the season I plan to rank the top 25 NCAA FBS teams using my
Complex Invasion College Football Production Model. Now that we have two weeks of data, the model does a fairly good job of estimating "offensive production" and "defensive production", so I have decided to post the first of the top 25 ranks for this past week. I had a lot of changes to make (teams switching conferences - and how that was coded in the data along with the addition of Georgia State). I am still working on the strength of schedule stuff as the source that I used in the past is no longer reporting the data, so I will either have to find another source or start entering it myself.
In the future I plan on having the top 25 done on Monday morning, with a small delay for this week. So, without any more delay - here is the Top 25 for this past weekend.
