I would be floored if this site could include an area detailing probation and vacated win seasons…

I have been using the SRS ratings as a historical guideline for national champions.

USC’s Reggie Bush SRS championships would be in question, along with Oklahoma from the 1970’s, and Florida from 1984.

Thanks again guys.

awesome web site. for a stat loving geek like myself, I love it. One thing: When are you guys going to expand past the year 2000. I love the stats on the coaches, but when will be able to get the stats on the “old” players?

Your reference sites are a treasure trove of knowledge…best of luck, and thanks for all the hard work.

I’m ecstatic that you have a yearly page with expanded standings detailing the SRS of each squad.

Do you have plans of ever tweaking the SRS calculations?

This data is fascinating to me, as I consider it more valuable than the polls system.

Also, I’m a huge proponent of the AV on the pro football side, and recommend it to anyone attempting to understand players values through history.

Any plans to adjusting AV either?

Thanks again

Splits (records) vs. other schools would be cool

Awesome. Two more things that I’d love to see as you guys make further additions and improvements:

– more defensive player stats, like tackles, sacks, and tackles for loss

– integrating these stats with the PFR draft page, so that we could have a version of the draft page which shows the players’ college stats instead of (or in addition to) their pro stats

Hey guys – glad to see CFB coming up online.

I’m sure it was a tremendous amount of work to get to this point, but one recommendation for future improvements would be to include team statistics (such as 3rd down conversions, 4th down conversions, total takeaways/giveaways, etc).

Random question to anyone who feels like answering:

Why are college football tackling stats so hard to come by? ESPN, CBSsports, Yahoo(Rivals), this site…. no one seems to have them. It seems like about the only place to get them are the teams’ official site. Is ‘tackle’ not an official stat that college football tracks?

No comments yet except to agree with #3- and I see that’s already been addressed in the next comment. I think many, many people have wanted a site like this for a long time. Congratulations on rolling this out and I’ll be excited to see how it improves.
