How does Ohio State's .840* winning percentage and the B1G's .565 winning percentage compare to the other Power Five conferences?

THREE THINGS WINNING PERCENTAGES POWER FIVE TEAMS

  1. Ohio State has the best winning percentage over the last 10 years (even with wins vacated .824)
  2. The Big 12 and SEC have three teams in the top 10.
  3. The ACC does not have a team ranked in the top 10.

 

TOP 10 POWER FIVE CONFERENCE TEAMS BY WINNING PERCENTAGE (2005-2014)
RANK TEAM CONFERENCE WINNING PERCENTAGE
1 OHIO STATE B1G .840*
2 OREGON PAC 12 .803
3 TCU BIG 12 .781
4 LSU SEC .780
5 ALABAMA SEC .768
       
6 OKLAHOMA BIG 12 .759
7 USC PAC 12 .737
8 WISCONSIN B1G .737
9 TEXAS BIG 12 .723
10 FLORIDA  SEC .723

*Ohio State's 12 vacated wins are included in the winning percentage above. NCAA violations be damned.
The Buckeyes have a .824 winning percentage if wins are omitted. Still best among P5 teams.

SECOND PLACE, AGAIN.

Ohio State 1st, Oregon 2nd...again.

 

THREE THINGS WINNING PERCENTAGES POWER FIVE CONFERENCES

  1. To my surprise the Big 12 leads all conferences with a winning percentage of .612.
  2. Even with Ohio State's .840 winning percentage the B1G ranks 3rd.
  3. All of the P5 conferences finished the decade above .500.

 

P5 AVERAGE WINNING PERCENTAGES (2005-2014)
CONFERENCE WINNING %
BIG 12 .612
SEC .606
B1G .565
PAC 12 .548
ACC .541

 

THREE THINGS LOWEST RATED POWER FIVE CONFERENCE TEAMS

  1. The B1G has three teams in the bottom 10. 
  2. Indiana, Illinois and Purdue suck.
  3. Now you know why Colorado and Iowa State still don't have a 2016 commit.

 

2005-2014 BOTTOM 10 P5 CONFERENCE TEAMS (WORST LISTED FIRST)
RANK TEAM CONFERENCE WINNING %
1 WASHINGTON STATE PAC 12 .298
2 COLORADO PAC 12 .309
3 DUKE ACC .341
4 INDIANA B1G .350
5 IOWA STATE BIG 12 .366
       
6 SYRACUSE ACC .369
7 ILLINOIS B1G .382
8 KANSAS BIG 12 .410
9 PURDUE B1G .411
10 VANDERBILT SEC .423

 

WHAT?

I'm not sure what this is, but it I'm confident it sucks at football.

Winning is always good.
