I find this chart to be very interesting every year. How it’s devised is if you beat an FBS opponent you get credit for all their wins over their FBS opponents

Strength of Wins

In this first chart below you can see Strength of Wins. Ohio St still holds the #1 spot. Ohio St has wins over FAU, Cincinnati, Indiana, Miami, Oh, Nebraska, Michigan St, Northwestern, Wisconsin and Maryland and those teams have a total of 42 wins. My chart this week grades 7 teams as having credit with a win but their foes have not won a single game vs a FBS foe.

Here is the Complete list of Strength of Wins with rank: Games Played thru 11/9/19

Pain of Losses

This next chart we will go over is the Pain of Losses. Here if you lose to an opponent you get credit for all their losses. At the bottom of the list you can see there are 5 teams unbeaten. Akron is on top of this list with a combined 47 foe losses. Akron foe losses include Illinois, UAB,Central Michigan, Troy, UMass Kent St, Buffalo, Northern Illinois and Bowling Green. UMass does not get credit for their win over Akron because they are still winless. Unlike the Strength of Wins chart, the Pain of Losses chart does include a loss to an FCS foe. I count that loss a 4 towards the combined foe loss record due to the weakness of the opponent.

Overall Wins and Losses

In this last chart below you can see the overall wins and losses. As you can see the top four teams are Ohio St, LSU, Minnesota and Penn St. There are three winless teams in blue. UMass in red is at the bottom of this list even with 1 win as their only win was against a winless Akron team. The other teams with 0 wins have at least 1 win vs an FCS team which we do not count in their record on this list.
