tl,dr:
Regressing our win % on the average of our opponents since 1992 we see that an increase in our combined opponents' strength decreases our success. Suprisingly, Bert being the coach is not a historical predictor of this when compared to other coaches, although we do not have a ton of statistical power here. Graphing this over time, however, makes me think there is something there to tease out further. Thanks to Swine for the reccomendation of this.

That drop after 2011 is insane. We are at a level if success we had never had, and then we fall to the darkest period ever.

I'm amazed you actually did that. Really interesting results but yeah it's a pretty crude model.
I wonder if taking opponents results vs Arkansas away from their total would make any difference. For example, if a team went 7-5 including a win vs Arkansas, they should really go down as 6-5.
There might be an issue of opponents winning more in a year specifically because we lost more that year.
