When it comes to picking bowl games, it turns out that we humans still know better than computers. Or at least, I know better than the computer program I wrote. Which actually doesn't sound as impressive, and might even be somewhat damning. At any rate, here's how the Annual Bowl Catastrophe shook out:<br />My Gut Reaction Picks - 27/35 correct<br />Chaos Rankings Pure Rank Picks - 23/35<br />Chaos Rankings SOS-Scaled Picks - 18/35<br />The picks above are based solely on picking the winner, not on picking the correct spread (via Chaos Rankings) or picking with the Vegas spreads. That the SOS-Scaled picks did worse than the Pure Rankings picks I suppose isn't terribly surprising. The rankings already have an SOS component built in, so adjusting the actual on-field numbers by that amount is somewhat tantamount to double-counting the schedule strength values. Still, I'm surprised that my own first look picks did better than the Chaos Rankings inspired picks. Of the 8 incorrect picks I made, 4 games were decided by less than 1 score, and 1 was a 10 point differential. The remaining three were truly catastrophes - WVU mauling Clemson, SMU manhandling Pitt, and Northern Illinois running all over Arkansas State.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-8894596665607185842?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.

They are the first 2-time champion in the 7 year history of Chaos Rankings. This was also the narrowest margin not just between #1 and #2 but between the entire top 3, being separated only by about 0.0065 points. In fact the gap between 1 and 5 was one of the smallest we've ever had, coming close to the game between 1 and 2 in some previous years. Tonight's game may have been incredibly one-sided and mind-numbingly dull, but on the whole, it's been a terrific season and there were some great bowl matchups. Hate to end the year on a sour note, but at least we have a lot of great memories to look back on while we endure the next ~8 college football-less months.<br /><br /><table border="1" cellspacing="0"

It's possible for Alabama to win and not jump Houston, and it's also possible for Alabama to end up at #1, but both scenarios require statlines that seem totally out of sorts with the last meeting in November. Stranger things have happened, but assuming a close game, an Alabama win would probably leave them stuck in 3rd place, with Houston in second and LSU in first.<br /><br />CCF Bowl Scenario 1<br />Alabama - 15 points, 250 yards, 0 TOs<br />LSU - 9 points, 200 yards, 1 TO<br />Result - 1) LSU, 2) Houston, 3) Alabama<br /><br />CCF Bowl Scenario 2<br />Alabama - 30 points, 350 yards, 0 TOs<br />LSU - 6 points, 200 yards, 2 TOs.<br />Result - 1) Houston, 2) Alabama, 3) LSU<br /><br />CCF Bowl Senario 3<br />Alabama - 35 points, 400 yards, 0 TOs<br />LSU - 9 points, 200 yards, 3 TOs<br />Result - 1) Alabama, 2) Houston, 3) LSU<br /><br />Scenario 1 shows that just simply winning won't be enough. It certainly closes the gap, but won't change the current rankings. As you can see between scenario 2 and 3, even a dominant Alabama performance may not be enough depending on how the final game stats shake out. Alabama's and Houston's score are so close together that, in general, anything that hurts LSU will also help Houston. So it will take a lot to push the Tide over the Cougars.<br /><br />As much as I love defense, the game in November was pretty boring. Reminded me a lot of the awful ACC Championship game between Wake and Georgia Tech that was won 6-3 by the Demon Deacons. Here's hoping for a little more offense and a little more excitement. A 13-10 game would be vastly superior to the 9-6 OT snoozer. Many other bowl games this season have delivered great matchups and exciting finishes, so hopefully the last one will do the same.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-6298164592705631661?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.

If you never watched him play, consider yourself forever poorer for having missed out on the #11 experience. Better wordsmiths than me will surely craft elaborately detailed accounts of his success, but I wanted to focus on a few of his more quantitative accomplishments here. So farewell to one of the greatest college QBs we may ever see and thank you for all the memories.<br /><br />Kellen Moore:<br /><b>Record: 50-3</b><br />#1 all-time in career wins. This requires not just being a 4-year starter, but also averaging 12.5 wins a season. Colt McCoy (second place on the career wins list) of Texas, also a 4-year starter, and aided by the Big XII having a championship game, still only put up 45 wins. Argue all you want about strength of schedule, but 50 wins is still a staggering number.<br /><b>Passing Yards: 14,667</b><br />#5 on the all-time list behind Case Keenum, Timmy Chang, Graham Harrell, and Ty Detmer. Not bad company to keep.<br /><b>Total Yards: 14,534</b><br />Good enough for #8 on the all-time best list. Impressive for a pocket passer with -133 career net rushing yards.<br /><b>Passing TDs: 142</b><br />#2 on the all-time list behind Case Keenum (currently 152, with a bowl game still on the schedule).<br /><b>Career Passer Rating: 169.0</b><br />#3 on the all time list behind Sam Bradford and Tim Tebow.<br /><b>Single Season Passer Rating: 182.6 (2010)</b><br />Third best score ever posted (currently, RG3 and Russell Wilson have higher scores, but have their bowl games remaining).<br /><b>Lowest Interception Percentage: 0.696% (350+ attempts)</b><br />#1 all time for QBs with at least 350 attempts, this mark was set during the 2009 season. Kellen Moore threw 3 INTs on 431 pass attempts.<br /><b>Career Completion Percentage: 69.78%</b><br />#2 all-time behind Colt Brennan (70.4%)<br /><b>Versus BCS AQ-Conference Teams: 6-0</b><br /><b>Versus Top-25 Teams (when played): 7-2</b><br /><b>In BCS Bowl Games: 1-0</b><br /><b>2010 Heisman Trophy: Finalist</b><br /><b>Conference Championships: 3 (WAC)</b><br /><b>Other Notes:</b><br />Against VT last year and U(sic)GA this year, Moore is 2-0 against ACC and SEC division champions, while considering that both season-opening games were played at "neutral" sites that were anything but. The Hokies game was at Fedex Field near Washington, DC, an area with a huge VT alumni base. The Georgia game was in Atlanta in the Georgia Dome, also a home to a large alumni base. Not to mention the travel time required for Boise compared to their opponents. In 2009, Boise hosted then #16 Oregon to open the season (one of the few teams brave enough to visit Bronco Stadium) and sent the Ducks home with a loss. Kellen Moore has three straight season-opening wins against ranked BCS AQ teams, two of them effectively in road games.<br />Moore's three losses were by a combined 5 points. Two of those losses were 1-point margins against TCU. Two of those losses involved missed field goals on the final play of the game. Last year, a missed FG against Nevada in overtime almost certainly cost Boise a spot in the BCS championship game and definitely cost them a BCS at-large spot. This year, even with a win, Boise would likely have been jumped by Alabama and OSU, but the missed FG against TCU certainly cost them another BCS bowl, and possibly a BCS championship game slot.<br />Beginning next year, the Touchdown Club of Columbus will rename their annual College Football Quarterback of the Year award after Moore.<br />Kellen Moore has been named to more All-American lists than you can shake a stick at.<br /><br />With about 3:30 minutes remaining in the 4th quarter of the 2011 Las Vegas Bowl, Boise had 1st and goal on the 2 after two consecutive ASU penalties on the previous play. While Kellen Moore was talking to coach Chris Petersen on the sidelines, I saw him gesturing at fellow senior Doug Martin. Martin returned the opening kickoff for a TD, but hadn't scored a rushing TD all game. Rather than trying to set up a play to get himself another TD or even try to find fellow senior Tyler Shoemaker (who already had a receiving TD in the game), Moore was actively campaigning for Petersen to keep Martin on the field and give him a chance to score a rushing TD in his final game as a Bronco. And really, amidst all the mind-boggling stats for a kid who's too small and doesn't have a big enough arm to play football, if that doesn't tell you everything you need to know about Kellen Moore, I don't know what will.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-7815496609852052289?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.

Final regular season rankings will be posted next week following conclusion of the Army/Navy game. With Houston's loss to Southern Miss, the difference between #2 and #3 is miniscule. It's possible (though doubtful) the ripple effect of next week's game could push Alabama ahead, but we'll have to wait and see if Chaos Rankings agrees with the likely BCS #1 and #2.<br /><br /><table

Personally, I think either game could go either way, but for the sake of argument, let's just assume the higher ranked teams win. Barring a 500-3 Sooner-crushing win by Oklahoma State to vault them over Alabama (OSU is already #2 in most computers, so it wouldn't take much), the stage would be set for another LSU/Alabama game, this time, for all the marbles.<br />But wait, there's still that pesky little SEC Championship game! If Alabama remains #2 after playing Auburn, there's not reason to think they aren't a lock for the BCS title game. Most experts are now predicting that even if #1 LSU loses to U(sic)GA in the SEC championship, they would remain ranked high enough to still be #2. Let's get this straight, we could potentially have 2 teams who didn't win their conferences playing for a national title? Or can we? Since the Dawgs would be guaranteed a spot as SEC champs, does that eliminate the #2 team since according to BCS rules, you can't have 3 teams from any conference. And let's not forget that Arkansas will probably still be a top 10 team after an LSU loss, but would be inelligble for at-large selection no matter what happens (again, the 3 team rule). Potentially, we could end the regular season with 4 SEC teams in the BCS top 10, only two of which are allowed into the various BCS games.<br />So perhaps we could see Alabama (didn't win their conference, OR even their division) playing not #2, but #3 (VT? OSU? Stanford? Boise? Houston?). Oh that's right, I forgot, despite likely finishing as a top 10 team, Boise's not eligible for automatic inclusion because they didn't win their conference (still eligible for an at-large pick however). But it's okay to have two teams who also (in my scenario) didn't win their conference play for a national title? Yeah, that makes sense. Meanwhile, the Big East is still guaranteed an auto-bid despite the UConn disaster last year, and that this year the Big East has zero teams currently ranked in the top 25 and will be lucky to finish with their champion in the top 20. Yeah, that makes sense too. Sorry Arkansas, sorry Boise, sorry LSU, no invitations for you, we have to make room for [insert Big East champ here] (pick one: WVU, Rutgers, Cincy, Louisville, Pitt, UConn). Yeah.<br />There's been some talk recently of reformatting the BCS. All kinds of crazy ideas being thrown out on the table, though most of them will never receive much traction. If this scenario plays out, might it finally be the impetus to scrap the whole thing and go to a true playoff?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-6034591028069581299?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.

Normally this means Sunday-Saturday, but since Labor Day weekend is always the big opening weekend, Week 1 usually runs Thursday-Monday. As such, Week 1 Chaos Rankings will be posted following the conclusion of the Miami vs Maryland game tomorrow. Also, don't forget that the first two weeks have some stabilization built in that is based on the preseason rankings (which are really just last season's final rankings). As I've <a href="http://chaos-rankings.blogspot.com/2009/08/in-defense-of-procrastination.html">said before</a> plugging in last year's final rankings is a better indicator of future performance than typical preseason rankings. And I think it's important during the first 2 weeks to limit how much teams can move up and down. Otherwise you end up with an awful team like Washington State near the top of the rankings for having throttled a I-AA team. Sure, plenty of teams that probably belong in the top also throttled their share of cupcakes, but that's why we scale the first two weeks 66.666% and 33.333% respectively against the "preseason" numbers. After 3 weeks, most teams start playing legitimate opponents and the data becomes more representative of true performance, so we drop all of the stabilization stuff.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-4977458608653656044?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.

After a tumultuous offseason (with some unresolved issues lingering into the season), it should be a nice change of pace to have some actual on-field action to discuss and distract us from all the off-field drama. Murray State at Louisville kicks off at 6 pm EDT on ESPNU. Where will you be? As usual, I'll be live-tweeting several games this year, including most Georgia Tech games. You can check that out over at <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/chaos_rankings"> Twitter</a>. Good luck to all the players, coaches, and fans this season!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-6477883856150224129?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.

If I've learned nothing else from the last year of graduate school it's this: There is no such thing as an objective "best" of anything. I alluded to this in the original mission statement post of this blog, way back in <a href="http://chaos-rankings.blogspot.com/2006/07/mission-statement-is-go.html">July 2006</a>. But now I have documented proof: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1441940537">Evaluation and Decision Models with Multiple Criteria</a>. I won't bore you with the details, but the premise here is that best depends on how you set up your evaluation model, and that even if you get everyone to agree on using the same data set, different aggregation methods will result in different ranking orders. As such, Bouyssou suggests that any evaluation model should be constructed to best imitate the client's value system and preferences. In this case, trying to elicit that information from the NCAA is impractical if not impossible. As for the BCS, things are a bit simpler: they only care about identifying the two best teams and having them play each other to annoint a champion. The BCS is a perfect example of how there is no such thing as "best." All the ranking methods used in the BCS computation don't necessarily agree with each other, and often the final result isn't agreed upon by the end user (the viewing public).<br />What does all of this nonsense mean for you? Two things. 1) These rankings aren't going anywhere. If the BCS continues to be controversial every year, it means there's always room for improvement. I'd like to think the proliferation of alternate ranking systems and recent uptick in playoff proponents leaves space at the discussion table for my own system. 2) I have a few ideas of my sleeve that I'm going to be playing with this season in terms of improving the predictive ability of the ranking system. If it's impossible to determine who's legitimately the "best" team out of a group of 120, I'd settle for at least being able to tell you that Team A should be able to beat Team B (therefore making them "better" than Team B) and why, using only past performance indicators. Stay tuned!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-1457720870884833805?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.

As usual, I'm calling bowls by whatever names I choose. I'm also trying something new with the predictions this year. What you see below is a table of data for each game showing what each team averages. Then I've scaled those values by each team's strength of schedule, so the values in parenthesis reflect how that team would be expected to perform against a team with a 0.500 SOS rating). It should be noted that this method has no basis in reality, and I haven't verified with past games that this is any more predictive than just using raw values, but it seems to make some intuitive sense. To obtain the predictions, I took the average of the points scored by a team and points allowed by their opponent. I've talked about the efficiency factor before. It's not used in any of my calculations, but it's a pretty telling statistic. Basically, how well to do you score and how well do you prevent your opponent from scoring. Since the name of the game is to outscore your opponent, in the end, the efficiency sort of rolls everything together. You rack up 700 yards per game, but turn the ball over a lot or always settle for a field goals? Chances are good you're going to lose to a team who only puts up 200 yards a game but never turns the ball over and almost always finds the end zone. It also indirectly takes non-offensive scoring and kick/punt returns into account because good field position will result in fewer offensive yards gained, but points are always points. I think most of the abbreviations used below are pretty self-explanatory, but just in case, TCPG and TFPG is turnovers committed per game and turnovers forced per game.

Go Navy, beat Army! Personal rooting preferences aside (<span style="background-color:navy;color:yellow"><b>go Navy!</b></span>), I didn't want you to think I'd forgotten about our service academies. Although the Commander-in-Chief Trophy has already been claimed by Air Force this year, the Army-Navy game still holds a lot of intrigue. For starters, both teams are bowl-eligible again, so this is a way for each team to build some momentum headed into their respective bowls. I know the latest rankings say "final" on them, but there is indeed one more game before the bowls officially start. And though one game won't have a lot of impact on most teams, it may be enough to shuffle teams up or down a spot in the rankings depending on the outcome. I'll post one more set of rankings following the game along with my usual bowl prediction catastrophe.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-613719037274877898?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.

You're held to a different standard than everyone else. You wear the same target on your back every week as one of the nation's elite teams, but if you lose, you may as well cease to exist. This was supposed to be the break-through year for the Broncos. They were joining a strong Mountain West conference alongside TCU, Utah, BYU, and Air Force, and then strong fellow WAC members Nevada and Fresno State were coming along for the ride. Then before it even began, it all blew up, as Utah left for the Pac 10-soon-to-be-12, BYU decided it wanted to be like Notre Dame, and now <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/dallas/ncf/news/story?id=5862368">TCU is abandoning the league for the Big East</a>. All of a sudden, there's no substance left to the MWC, and Boise looks like they bet on the wrong horse (no Bronco pun intended). Add to that the fact that Boise was returning 20 starters from a very good team last year and began the season ranked in the Top 5, with a very good shot at a national title game appearance if a couple teams lost. But Friday night in Reno, that all went up in smoke as well. Now instead of joining a league with a legitimate claim to being stronger than the Big East and probably the ACC, they join a gutted league of nobodies. Instead of playing for a national title, they are going to be relegated to a bowl game with a name you won't even remember the next morning. Talk about the blues.<br />I'm not here to say that Boise is a definite #1 team, or is even the best non-AQ team out there, but they are a very good team, and one loss to another very good team shouldn't damn your season. You wanna talk schedule strength? Fine, according to the <a href="http://web1.ncaa.org/mfb/2010/Internet/toughest%20schedule/fbs_9games_cumm.pdf">NCAA's SOS ratings</a>, Boise plays an equivalent schedule to Ohio State and Nebraska. No friends, I'm here to beg for a playoff and to tell you that the BCS is preposterous. Look at the Big T([w]elev)en where there's a 3-way round robin tie for the conference title. BCS #8 Michigan State won't be playing in a BCS game, but UConn, Pitt or WVU will? At least Michigan State will still play in a top-tier bowl game, not the frozen tundra of the Humanitarian Bowl or the Fight Hunger Bowl.<br />I heard a lot of announcers this weekend talking about how games this past week were basically opening round playoff games. Certainly, there were elimination games, but often the winning team effectively has a zero percent chance of "advancing" into later rounds. LSU's outside shot at the BCS title game disappeared when they lost to Arkansas, but it's not like the Razorbacks have any realistic chance of playing for a national title. Boise's title shot went out the window with a loss to Nevada, but the Wolfpack have a mathematic impossibility to reach the title game. it's only a playoff game if both teams entering the game have the same mathematical odds of advancing to not only the next round, but also to the championship. When March madness begins, technically, all 65 teams have an equal chance to win it all. Just because it's unlikely that the play-in game winner will make the Final Four doesn't mean they have any less opportunity to do so. Can we all agree to dispense sugar-coating the BCS by attempting to couch regular season games as "effective playoff games?" It's dishonest.<br />Here's my proposition: There are 11 conferences. Take the 11 champions, and the top 5 ranked teams who are not champions, regardless of conference affiliation, seed them according to rank, and play a 16 team tournament. Alternatively, just take the top 16 ranked teams, period. You might end up with 4 SEC teams in the playoffs, but so what? If they're top teams, don't they deserve a chance for not just a national title, but a national championship? Every other level of football has a playoff, why not Div I-A? You like bowl games? Hey, me too! But while we're fixing stuff, can we fix this too? Reduce the number of bowl games (a necessity if you remove 16 bowl-eligible teams for the playoffs), and increase the requirement to play in one: Your record must be over 0.500. Your 6-6 record does not merit the reward of a bowl game; you did not have a winning season; better luck next year. Don't like the idea of the Rose Bowl going away? Me either, but I have a solution for that too. Add the Peach and the Cotton, and stage the playoff quarterfinals and semifinals as the Rose, Sugar, Fiesta, Orange, Peach, and Cotton bowls, rotating games as necessary so everyone stays happy. <br />Does the BCS match up the two best teams at the end of the year? Sometimes, yes, but more often it's splitting hairs between a few very good teams, any one of which would be a deserving champion. Just ask 2000 Miami, 2001 Colorado/Oregon, 2003 USC, 2004 Auburn, 2006 Michigan, or 2008 Texas. Fans of college football deserve better than the BCS. They deserve better than watching some pointless bowl games between mediocre 6-6 teams. They deserve a system that rewards teams who turn in strong seasons with minor slip ups a chance to play for something meaningful at the end of it all.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30667008-5797008322360251549?l=chaos-rankings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rev.
