Big 12 Power Rankings 2022.11.17
So I am trying something different for the rankings this week. I am bringing in a point system to help figure out where each team fits. The point system does not reward winning at home or punish losing on the road. Why should a team benefit from doing what they should do? It tries to reward a team or punish a team for doing what it shouldn’t, winning on the road and losing at home. I think it gives a better idea of how a team is performing on the field when each team does not get to play the same number of home games. A team playing 5 road games has more opportunity to be high in the rankings because they get an extra shot at doing the unexpected while a team playing 5 home games does not get extra credit for winning an extra game at home.
