Strength of Record

Aptly named by "College GameDay" coordinating producer Lee Fitting, Strength of Record (SOR) measures how strong a team's record is, given its schedule. It's based on the chance of an average Top-25 team having the team's record or better, given the opponents the team has played (and where they played) to date. A higher Strength of Record indicates a more impressive accomplishment it means that the team's W-L record was more difficult to achieve.

So I guess it means that even though Baylor's Strength Of Schedule is #65 (or #17 within the top 25), the average Top 25 team (#13 Auburn?) would have a 17% change of going 9-0).

Another way to look at it is that Baylor's 9-0 is the 3rd best record given the Strength Of Schedule.

The main thing it does is to not give you credit for losses.

So no good losses? That's heresy or sacrilege or voodoo or one of them other swanky words

Also who needs advanced metrics when we got the ole eye test!
