I happened to find this gem of a site to find that Oregon leads college teams as the most under-ranked team since 1989 after reading this Oregon Live article. Notre Dame is the most over-rated team since 1989. What if we took the data from that website and factor them into this year's AP poll?
The data from the stassen website gives a positive or negative number which represents how close the AP is at guessing a team's rank over the past 23 years. I can't just divide that number by 23, because not every team has been ranked each year. So I've averaged out the numbers individually according to how many years each team has had a rank value. I factored in the first 30 teams in the AP Poll and will now share with you the top 20. I wonder which list will be more accurate at the end of the season.
Adjusted AP | Team | AP Poll |
---|---|---|
1 | Oregon | 5 |
2 | Alabama | 2 |
3 | South Carolina | 9 |
4 | USC | 1 |
5 | LSU | 3 |
6 | Georgia | 6 |
7 | Arkansas | 10 |
8 | Oklahoma | 4 |
9 | Wisconsin | 12 |
10 | Florida State | 7 |
11 | Michigan | 8 |
12 | West Virginia | 11 |
13 | TCU | 20 |
14 | Virginia Tech | 16 |
15 | Boise State | 24 |
16 | Oklahoma State | 19 |
17 | Utah | 30 |
18 | Clemson | 14 |
19 | Stanford | 21 |
20 | Kansas State | 22 |
