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.

Double click on a team name on the right sidebar to isolate their graph.
The autoscale feature in the top right is useful for restoring
the picture, or zooming in on a smaller subset of the teams.
