Podcast: Market rankings for college football and NFL

By Dr. Ed Feng Leave a Comment

With a bit of a break in college football, I devote this week’s episode of the Football Analytics Show to market rankings. These come from taking the closing point spreads in the markets and adjusting for schedule to rank teams.

These market rankings reveal some surprising opinions about college and pro teams:

  • The college football playoff team that is 8th in these market rankings.
  • The surprising top ranked college football team by the markets.
  • The ESPN pundits have Oakland as their top AFC team, but the markets beg to differ.
  • The college football team the markets didn’t give up on, even though media did.
