76% of FBS teams have 3 or more losses this year.

[cane22]

Just an observation. So 32 teams have 2 or fewer losses at this point. Parity? Crap coaching? The norm?

 

[canes1996]

What are the usual numbers at this point, just for reference?

 

[SPAMM]

What percentage have four or more?

 

[ToneyDaGawd]

Sounds like a Manny stat to me.

 

[skyman]

Context? compared to a typical season?

And in reality few teams end up undefeated or one loss anyway, we not tryna be avg team, we want to be elite.. This sounds like some stat cooked up by athletic dept to keep stealing checks.. "Look mostly everybody sucks, not just us!"

Losing six games in a row to power five schools is the definition of parity. Wait…..what?

 

[Go Canes!!]

There will be multiple 5 loss teams ranked at the end of this season.

15-25 in the AP is a ****-show

 

[CANEMC]

Two ranked teams back-to-back bro!

 

[TriStarCane]

But how do you quantify that?

 

[Go Canes!!]

Back end of the Top 25 two years ago. Think this season will look similar record-wise for the teams there.

 

[SPAMM]

I count 56, or about half, with three or less losses

 

[DTP]

I've been saying for a while, the gap between 1-5 is bigger than the gap between 5-25. There's a ton of parity once you get past the top teams. Lots of one score games and fairly even matchups makes for interesting college football.

Super seniors bringing parity.

 

[SFbayCane]

Super seniors bringing parity.

This is my theory as well.


I think the super seniors are brining parity to the lower 3/4th's of college football. The top teams are still the top teams but the rest of the teams are all a few players deeper in their rosters than a normal season.

 

[dycane]

Portal will do that.

This sound like some **** Diaz tells susan.

Right! Also…The mid tier teams generally graduate players into the non NFL workforce… those are the players who stuck around. The more elite teams, where more players have a chance at an NFL roster, should have fewer productive super seniors.

Wish we had a HC that could keep us in the other 24%
