60% current season stats, 40% preseason numbers. Will be 80/20 after next week and all current season after Week 4.

The SOGa+ is how many pts that team is vs an "average" team (which is a team at +0, so roughly A&M at this point). The only stats used are FBS vs FBS (so games vs Mercer, Southern, etc aren't included at all), and those only include non-garbage time (so nothing when your 3rd team is in up 42 vs Kent State).

As you can see, Georgia is well out in front of anyone else right now. +6.5 over Bama, +22 over State, etc.

Still some kinks due to Strength of Schedule being quirky after only 1 or 2 games (Minnesota, Toledo, Air Force probably).

Is there a specific website for SOGa+? Is it more like a spreadsheet?

Lol nice.

A few notes: Air Force may actually run the table. They returned a lot off a good team, and the Mountain West looks pretty bad to start the season - San Diego State, Boise and Utah State all look worse than a year ago.

The Pac 12’s highest team is 23rd and the ACC’s is the 24th. Yikes.

Notre Dame is the only team that really sticks out to me as surprising. Especially their offense rank.

What the hell happened to South Florida? They were in a power, or at least AQ, conference not that long ago.

I think a lot of that is (a) they get a big bump for playing Ohio State and (b) preseason fluff.

If they play 2 more games like they have they'll drop like a rock.

They got bad under Charlie Strong and the Clemson guy has done absolutely zero to fix it.

It’s always dangerous with a retread hire that they’ll check out like Strong at USF or Sumlin at Arizona. I knew they were bad, but not bottom of the FBS bad which it looks like they’ve been for several years.

Around 2013, USF would’ve been my #1 or #2 prediction for next P5 school.

If they want to try the retread route again, Scott Frost may be a good fit given what he did just across I4.

At this point, i'm not sure any FBS program would pick up Scott - his Nebraska tenure will probably screw up his coaching reputation.

Of course it is….Mr Google Fingers. You act all smart when I’m reality you’ve been working a on the early shift at Hardee’s for 55 years with no raises.
