ACC and Schedule Week 5 Power Rankings Combined

[GoSU96]

Added my quick and dirty ranking with the other rankings most cited here.

It's pretty evident that even this far into the season S&P and FEI are skewed by assumptions and inputs prior to this season starting favoring traditional power teams.

WMU makes the yards per play look worse than it is but that's just about even against FBS. We run a lot more plays. And we don't turn it over (so many plays are so easy - finally taking easy 5 yards on bubbles)

Yes and no. Louisville and Wake both started in the 30’s.

Remember how our opponents perform affects our numbers too. We still haven’t beaten a great team.

This is also a case where I think those rankings will move in our direction over the next few games. We’re good - they are lagging a bit.

(S&P+ works in preseason stuff like recruiting rankings the previous years and how much production you lose to graduation)

Per your other post, Wake is starting to fall into the heavy favorite should count on winning territory. 8 "should wins" with a very special season turning on NCSt, BC, and ND.

The NCSt game keeps trending to being the biggest mid season game since Lville in '12.

Life is good when pitt stinks. Hopefully we keep running this offense in a dome while they keep doing the whole pro style force feed one WR passing attack. Worked ok for them for a while but they're falling behind

Wake's qb past year was criminally underrated. I know this because I can't remember his name ha.

They need great qb play to mask other stuff

That's because he was at Wake for 6-7 years...John Wolford. Clawson inherited him from Grobe.

IMO consensus top 40 statistical power ranking and 8 wins = corner turned. Again doesn't mean there isn't plenty of upside, it means the team can legitimately compete with anybody.

Here is an updated consensus with /+ added.

SU's average in 2012 was 37.
