The categorical awards are calculated using yards per play, yards allowed, and points scored/allowed. The best overall team award is a combination of these with strength of schedule factored in. I use my own SOS formula that's pretty complex. Teams SOS is constantly fluctuating as it is dependent upon who you beat and what they are ranked. More points are also gained for away wins against ranked teams. Currently, Michigan has the strongest SOS at a score of 44. I, with Stanford, have the lowest SOS with a score of 0. The next lowest is Florida with 19.5. My SOS has killed me and that's why I'm 2nd to last in the running for the Best Overall Team Award.

That should change next year when you have more human opponents.

I can, but it's a lot of work and it seems that not many people shared your affinity for the awards. If other people would like me to do them again I definitely will, it's just quite a bit of work for no one to really care about.

It's up to you, but I thought it was something cool to look at.

Well, if a couple more people say that they would like me to do them again I will. I have some time the next couple of days so I can get it all worked out if there's the desire for it. I'm an economist, so I follow the rules of supply and demand lol.

I like them too, but if it's a lot of work and you're busy don't stress yourself over it.

Awards updated.

I like your ratings a lot more this season, especially the best running team one, which I've almost doubled the score of the 5th place team.

Wow lol best overall team I dunno about that haha

That's what I like to see. Defense wins championships baby!!!! We're on our way to build something special out here in Cali.
