Here are my intial numbers, probably will change slightly heading into the season, but mainly use Power ratings as another tool in capping teams.

Thanks bej, GL to you too....let's bust the man's balls this year.

Let me make sure I understand what your numbers are saying and how to use them. For example, UCLA should beat Ole Miss by .5, given that the game is in LA, right?

 

[thebsmanofkent]

Yeah, I usually use to get an intially take of where these teams are, class-wise. In your example, I believe given Ole Miss is on the road @ UCLA, it would be a fairly tight game in terms of "line".

I also have a couple other flowchart-type things I use to compare, as well as just Fundamental handicapping.....

I believe the biggest thing to get from Power Ratings, is that the HFA, Home Field Advantage, for each team can vary significantly.
e.g, Indiana may be 2 or 2' pts @ home,
while Virginia Tech may be 6 or 6'......



GL to ya this year StuckinNJ.....:00hour
