It's week eight of the season and week three of the ESP. Here are the ESP ranking, the playoff bracket, the 1-25 AV ranking, and the different portions of the AV ranking: SOS (Strength of Schedule), QWL (Quality Win/Loss), AWP (Adjusted Win Percentage), and MOV (Margin of Victory).
There are some interesting things to point out this week. There are seven teams in the top 25 of the AV ranking that have strength of schedule ratings greater than or equal to 100. Unless these teams have relatively high rankings in Quality Wins/Losses and/or Margin of Victory it is highly likely they do not deserve such a high ranking and will falter down the stretch provided, of course, they play a more difficult schedule or a better than mediocre opponent in a bowl game. Even with relatively high QWL and MOV rankings these teams are largely untested and, therefore, sort of "wild cards" when it comes to predicting matchups.
