Stats Corner: Best of the G5
As we reach the end of non-conference games (mostly), Stats Corner is going to look at who is the best of the non-Power 5, or 4, conferences. Power 5 being AAC, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, and PAC whatever. Those in the running for the best G5 are American, Conference USA, Mid-American, Mountain West, and Sun Belt. This week, we are going to break each conference into thirds and compare the rankings of the groups. For those of you who remember quartiles from your Stats courses, I agree quartiles are what is typically used, but the number of members in each conference makes a using third more effective, but nice job remembering your stats procedures. Rankings come from Athlon Sport.
