We’re about 20 games into the 2022 NBA season, and power ratings are my favorite thing in the world, so it’s time to start pumping out NBA power ratings in addition to my NFL and College Football ratings. As with the football ratings, it’s mainly based on net statistics, for example net points per game,… Read More NBA Power Ratings, December 1, 2021: Warriors On Top
The Bills retain their grip on the top spot in the power ratings, although not by as much as in past weeks. It’s getting tighter up at the top: The Bucs and Patriots come in at #2 and #3 respectively, and are very close to one another. Notably, the Patriots will head to Buffalo to… Read More Week 13 NFL Power Ratings: Bills, Bucs and Patriots Top The List
This will be the penultimate College Football Power Ratings of the 2021 season. After Conference Championship Saturday, I’ll compile an updated ranking, and then that’ll be it: we’re off to bowl season and the Playoff. However, I did make one final tweak to the system after the results of this past weekend. Because I am… Read More College Football Power Ratings: Conference Championship Week
As we head into the final week of the regular season, a clear top-4 remains at the top of the power ratings. Alabama stubbornly remains #1, which surprised me this week given their close shave against Arkansas. I really thought they were going to fall, at least to #2, but they maintain their hold on… Read More College Football Week 13 Power Ratings: Rivalry Week is Upon Us
Can’t believe we’ve only got two more regular season college football Saturdays remaining in the 2021 season, but here we are. My power ratings through 11 weeks: Alabama has retaken the #1 spot from Georgia, although this is probably because Alabama played a stat-padder opponent, New Mexico State, this past weekend. But it does go… Read More College Football Week 12 Power Ratings
I haven’t done my NFL power ratings in a while but we’re back for week 11. The Bills were on top when I last did the ratings (week 7) and they remain on top. They’re just so highly-ranked in virtually every category. Really the only place you can knock them is in strength of schedule,… Read More NFL Week 11 Power Ratings: Bills Remain On Top
This is where we stand after 10 weeks of college football (although of course most teams have had a bye so they’ve only played 9 games). Georgia and Alabama remain solidified at the top in a class of their own, while Ohio State and Michigan are a bit lower in a tier of their own:… Read More CFB Power Ratings: Week 10
I tweaked the formula a bit because last week my ratings were only able to get 62% of the straight-up game outcomes correct, and that’s not good enough. Here is the new formula: In addition to having Net Yards, I now have net rushing yards, net passing yards and net YPC. I also have added… Read More College Football Week 9 Power Ratings
As with the college football power ratings, I decided to streamline the process and use mainly net statistics, as it can kill two birds with one stone for a lot of my categories. Here are the statistical categories I’m using: To get a team’s rating, I averaged out their ranks across all the statistical categories… Read More NFL Week 7 Power Ratings
I overhauled the formula for my college football power rating system. At first, I was only evaluating the teams in the AP Top 25, but now that I’ve figured out how to scrape data from sports data websites, I am now able to evaluate all 130 teams in the FBS. This makes the system a… Read More College Football Week 8 Power Ratings
