Power 5

Apologies to those who read this before it went to Blog Heaven.

How does Ohio State's .927 and the B1G's .561 winning percentage between 2012-2014 compare to the other Power Five conferences?

Three Things Winning Percentages Power Five Teams

  1. The ACC leads all conferences with three teams in the top 10.
  2. The Big 12 only has one team in the top 10 (Baylor 8th).
    1. Ohio State is one win shy of tying Florida State for the top spot.

Ohio State / Florida State

Florida State went 39-3 and Ohio State was 38-3 between 2012-2014.

 

Three Things Power Five Average Winning Percentages

  1. Even with the teams ranked 2nd and 7th the B1G ranks 4th.
  2. The SEC has the highest winning percentage average.
  3. There was a reason the Big 12 was left out of last year's playoff.

CONFERENCE WINNING %
SEC .614
ACC .571
PAC 12 .566
B1G .560
BIG 12 .556

 

Three Things Lowest Rated Power Five Conference Teams

  1. The Pac 12 has three teams in the bottom 10.
  2. Kansas and Colorado are pathetic.
  3. Is it any surprise that Colorado and Iowa State still don't have a commitment for the 2016 recruiting class?
