Conferences & Divisions

December 5, 2010

I gave each conference and division (ACC, Big XII, and SEC divisions only) a score based on three points for a top 10 team, 2 points for a team ranked 11-25, and 1 point for a team ranked 26-40. The sheer number of top 40 teams is also indicated. Score/tm is the conference's or division's total score divided by number of teams. I also indicated percent of teams in a group that are in the top 25 and top 40, respectively. They are sorted by score. Conference ties are broken by score/team; divisional ties and remaining conference ties are sorted by top 40 membership and then top-25 membership. Failing that, the rankings of all top 40 teams of the respective conferences are averaged. (I have changed my macro to give the correct percentages at the end.)

Best teams of unrated conferences:
