https://t.co/4NUtCXpnak is an open source project determined to create a better CFB ranking model.

Love this! However, I do believe that we will continue to see the trend of Coordinator/HC as CFB trends to look more like the NFL. Gate 2 will fall eventually, and the 7 teams in that group may have a shot, especially if paired with another emerging trend: Former HCs as a coordinator (e.g. Chip Kelly), 7 of the 11 had that feature.

There will be 3 types of people in the future:

The Purists - reject AI and become new-age hippies

The Automatons - outsource every decision and become machines

The New Renaissance Man - maintains humanity and leverages tech to do what used to be impossible

@50ElevenTimes Dude. Nice! 👏

[The Poll @thepollai]

@redzone_cfb That’s all we’re looking for, but without human bias. Just data.

@NCAAFNation247 Our model says 11-1 with a L from the Irish.

[The Poll @thepollai]

We have the Canes at pre-season #6.

The model gives Miami 66 percent or better in ten of its twelve games.

The two that are not: at Clemson, 59, and at Notre Dame, 35.

Which of the two decides their season?

[The Poll @thepollai]

@Top25PublicHSFB @NFHSNetwork Schools need to stream themselves using their Hudl stream. Most schools have it as part of their Hudl subscription and don’t even realize it.

[The Poll @thepollai]

@SimnickRuss @RBuckeyeOSUFan Absolutely possible. Not sure about the repeat though.

[The Poll @thepollai]

Our model projects the Hoosiers at #3.

The model favors Indiana in all twelve games and still says 9-3, because a 75 percent favorite can lose one week in four.

Where might the three losses come from?

[The Poll @thepollai]

@RBuckeyeOSUFan tOSU wins it all but drops the regular season game to the Hoosiers.

Honestly great takes across the board for your B1G hot takes.
https://t.co/xJUtcIuj90

[The Poll @thepollai]

Our projection has tOSU at #1.

The four tOSU games the model is least sure of are all on the road, and the only one the model calls a loss is at Indiana with a 42 percent chance.

@BarstoolOSU Which road trip worries you most?

[The Poll @thepollai]

@ThroneSpud Texas: Tech
Indiana: Hoosiers

Love the take on UNLV. It’ll be interesting to see what they do this year.

[The Poll @thepollai]

@CollegeFBonX Actually a tough one:

Of the field of 4 & who has a shot:
A: 50%
B. 25%
C. 0%
D. 25%

But it’s going to be tOSU, so I guess I’ll go with B.

[The Poll @thepollai]

@Top25PublicHSFB Interesting debate.

Our entire thesis is that AI can create a better model for the polls than any human.

But, after the model runs the insights come from people, then ‘the machine’ makes the graphics.

Humans + AI will be the way forevermore.

[The Poll @thepollai]

@oregon__updates Our model’s take:
https://t.co/uWUugp8mlr

[The Poll @thepollai]

Our projection has the Ducks at #2.

Only one game on Oregon's card is anywhere near a coin flip: at USC with 48 percent odds.

Set aside the trip to Ohio State and the other ten are all 61 percent or better.

@BarstoolDucks Does that look right?

@GamedayGarage Our model is pretty close to yours across the top half. We see the bottom a bit differently.
