I'm doing a poor job of explaining what I'm sharing.  I take all the stats from conference games for 124 conference teams in the highest division and then compare the individual stats from all these categories (listed above) to national averages to get z-scores, which I then convert to percentiles.  See below for how the B1G teams stack up relative to all those...

For SOS, I am taking the average of the average category percentile ratings (for teams a team has played) to develop this ranking...  This means that Wisconsin is the first team on the list to have played the "worse-than-average" B1G teams overall.

We can sort of check this by looking at MSU's opponents: Indiana, Northwestern, Penn State, Michigan, Purdue, Maryland, and Ohio State

                                                                vs. OSU's opponents: Rutgers, Penn State, Indiana, Minnesota, Purdue, Nebraska, and Michigan State

The overall rankings of all the FBS teams (that are in conferences) follows:

All I did was average the average percentile figures for all nine categories I'm tracking to get these.  I only take the average of the defensive and offensive category averages for the next two posts.
