College football playoff probabilities after week 5

By Dr. Ed Feng 1 Comment

Screen Shot 2015-10-09 at 3.41.52 PMEach week, I calculate the probability that each team makes the college football playoff. You can find these numbers over at Bleacher Report along with my analysis.

This week, I wrote about how Utah is overrated. J.B. Long of the Pac-12 Network was nice enough to tweet it to his followers, which brought this backlash from Utah fans.

Utah fans are right up there with Auburn fans for internet etiquette. Gotta love the passion of college football fans.
