Guys, all this bickering lead me to do some research and I found the perfect tool, the transitive property. This proves UNH is #1 and there really isn't an argument: http://www.myteamisbetterthanyourteam.com/default.asp#.VG95C3ktDug

UNH over NDSU


Div I - FCS
New Hampshire
beat
Richmond
29 - 26


Div I - FCS

Therefore, New Hampshire is better than N Dakota St in 2014
as shown in 8 rounds by a combined score of 273 - 200.

UNH over CCU

because New Hampshire beat Elon 48 - 14
while Coastal Car only beat Elon 31 - 3
Therefore, New Hampshire is better than Coastal Car in 2014
as shown in 1 rounds by a combined score of 51 - 45.


UNH over JSU:



Div I - FCS
New Hampshire
beat
Dartmouth
52 - 19


Div I - FCS

This was good for a laugh....while we are throwing crap at the wall to see what sticks I will say the Elon game puts Coastal over UNH based on margin of victory as a percent of scoring...

(31-3)/31= 90% > (48-14)/48= 71%

Good find!

I compared CCU to Harvard, and the final step is that Georgetown is better than Harvard. Nevermind they lost 34-3 head to head. Then I flipped it around, and found out that S. Carolina State is better than Coastal Carolina. Again, SC State lost 30-3 head to head. xlolx

Son of a bitch...Up until we lost there was no possible way just using wins that people could be better than us with this transitive polling site.

:(

It actually uses score comparison too. For instance, when I plugged in UNH vs CCU, because CCU hasn't lost yet it compared scores against common opponents.


There is even a way to find out how a d3 school is better than Bama, albeit it would take a huge number of rounds.

Yes, but the "by wins only" selection is the best one to choose when length is required.

Even though this was clearly a joke, it does point out a few interesting things. It lets you know that all this talk about who played who and the transitive property basically means nothing, any given Saturday. On the other hand, it also compares schedules pretty well and points out flaws In the schedule.

That is a great way to kill some time on a Friday afternoon. Thanks for the post.
