Transcript
- 0:00I want to go to your best offenses. Some fascinating numbers here, guys.
- 0:04You can find this at k Ford Ratings on x also go to k
- 0:07Ford Ratings dot com. When you look, and I'm bringing this up because
- 0:10we're headed into the new era, you know, the twelve team era.
- 0:13This is your numbers from you know, the college football playoff era starting at
- 0:17twenty fourteen. And to give contact scale zero to one hundred and fifty is
- 0:20considered FBF average, FBS average. Oklahoma, Alabama, Ohio State, Oregon,
- 0:27and USC. That's your top five offenses in the last ten years.
- 0:32All mess down there at seventh. I want to get to some surprises on
- 0:36here. But for those that think again, and I know a lot of
- 0:38people are going to go right back and beat me over the head with this
- 0:41and say, yeah, but Oklahoma playing in the Big twelve. This is
- 0:43why even under Brent Vinables and what they have on their staff. You look
- 0:47at what they did last year. I mean Oklahoma over the span of you
- 0:51know, Bob Stoops, Lincoln Riley right at that end of that transition up
- 0:56until now, number one offense in the country of the last ten years.
- 1:00Yeah, Jake, it's been incredible. The offensives that have been in Norman
- 1:03in the last ten years, as you pointed out, and to the argument
- 1:07of because I hear it too well, they played in the Big twelve,
- 1:08Well who they played? Well, what about those defense they played? You
- 1:11hear that. Really, regardless of the data that I'm presenting, you'll get
- 1:15somebody or some group of people that will say, yeah, but strength to
- 1:18schedule. Yeah, but opponent's face probably the most helpful thing to know about
- 1:23my numbers. But the thing that I'm most proud of with the numbers is
- 1:26they are opponent adjusted. So I am taking into account before I ever present
- 1:30any data, I am taking into account who you played, where you played,
- 1:36and by how much you won or lost those gains. So when I
- 1:38say Oklahoma or sorry, when my data says Oklahoma over the last ten years,
- 1:42since that has had an average offensive k forward rating of ninety six point
- 1:48one, that essentially means Oklahoma over the last ten years, on average,
- 1:53every single year waited the same. I'm not waiting last year more than twenty
- 1:57fourteen. It's just the way I chose to do this exercise. They all
- 2:00count equal weight, but Oklahoma for the last ten years has averaged an offense
- 2:04in the ninety six point one percent pile of all college football teams. Like,
- 2:08that's how you can interpret this number that you see on the graphics next
- 2:12to each team. Alabama at number two, ninety four point nine. So
- 2:15over the last ten years, they've been in almost the ninety fifth percent pile
- 2:19of all college football teams. Again on average on the offensive side of the
- 2:23ball. So anybody who kind of comes at you, Jake and says,
- 2:27well, yeah, but they played in this league, but they played against
- 2:29those defenses that's been adjusted to account for that. So I feel good about
- 2:34those opponent adjustments. You said, Ole miss there at number seven, another
- 2:37one of your audience will care about. Mississippi State came in at number twenty
- 2:39four for me on the best offenses of the CFP era. So it was
- 2:43a fun little exercise, jac It's it's something that I needed to do to
- 2:46get myself a break, honestly from all the data crunching that I was doing
- 2:50trying to prepare for the twenty twenty four preseason B one ratings coming out.
- 2:53I just needed to take a pause from all of the returning production calculations,
- 2:58roster scraping from websites and just kind of say, Okay, what can I
- 3:00do for fun that's still cost theball related I'll take a look at the offensive,
- 3:04defensive, and special teams in the last ten years.
