Mersnik College Football Ratings 2018

I created a ratings system for college football teams based on points for/against. Each team is given two ratings: one for offense, and one for defense. THe average rating of an arbitrary FBS team is 0.5 for both offense and defense. By strategically sampling games from the entire season, a probability distribution function representing team skill can be created, representing the likelihood that a team plays at a given level. This allows for more nuance to be given when considering the strength of team, rather than blending games when a team performs well and games when they perform poorly into a single rating.
