Computer Composite, Week 5


I am now including both Colley and Massey in the Computer Composite.  Since only four are current, I am using all four this week.  With the two new additions, the first set of numbers reflects the points for all four active computer ratings.  The second set of numbers reflects the two middle computer ratings to approximate the actual BCS formula.  This necessitates more calculations but I believe they are necessary this early to get a true reflection of the actual BCS Standings.  It doesn't make a huge difference but in cases such as Clemson and Texas, where the ratings are all over the map, it does greatly improve their rating.
