    How is the P rating determined?

    Believe it or not I'm not EXACTLY sure but I know it's a combination of historical, computer and "other" data similar but exactly what they use in BCS bowl and final four seedings which happen later in the season.

    I do know if you look at a weekly matchup the above formula gets you close to the actual opening line.

    Also there is a list of who actually sets the lines for every single casino out there! It's available on vegasinsider.com if you want to click around.

    I have to run now but will check later......for my own curiosity.

    Did some checking on ratings (not rankings) systems. .....

    .....Sports ratings systems have been around for almost 80 years, when ratings were calculated on paper rather than by computer, as most are today. Some older computer systems still in use today include: Jeff Sagarin's systems, the New York Times system, and the Dunkel Index, which dates back to 1929. Before the advent of the College Football Playoff, the Bowl Championship Series championship game participants were determined by a combination of expert polls and computer systems....

    Many years back I used Jeff Sagarin a statistician from MIT, free out of USA TODAY since 1985 for general information.

    I'm going to email my service and see what they say, some might not want to divulge information on any proprietary or paid services, we'll see.

    8:00 PM 2 Ohio State @ 8 Wisconsin ABC Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit

    ESPN's GAMEDAY is live from Camp Randall this week.

    Ohio State -10 looks good to me even there, Wisconsin just doesn't have the ground game like years past, Buckeyes need to win this one.

    One thing often overlooked in the weekly rankings, from the AP week 7.......

    Others receiving votes: Georgia 59, Arizona State 53, North Carolina 51, LSU 50, Oklahoma State 48, North Dakota State 36, Stanford 26, Colorado 22, South Florida 20, TCU 14, Washington State 9, NC State 9, Iowa 3, Air Force 2, San Diego State 2, Wake Forest 1

    D-1AA ND State got 36 votes among the big boys but then again the Bison are it in ND more than any other D-1A or even pro team and with the machine humming with recruiting, etc. looks like they will steam roll again.

    And look at the other D-1A teams the once mighty LSU, Stanford, TCU, Iowa and what ever happened to Georgia?

    Georgia is breaking in a new coach and a true freshman QB. They will be fine.

    Georgia used to be more of a perennial powerhouse than they are now or so it seems, only one 12+ game winning season since 2003.

    So far the Buckeyes have their hands full, Wisconsin QB looks ok, they're running the ball....well one long run w/fumble but got it back on review. Wisconsin playing good D or OSU not in gear yet.

    WISC 10-6 2nd quarter.

    Holy crap first the 3 minute rain and the pick in the end zone against OSU. 3rd quarter. Is God not a Buckeyes fan?

    And NORTHWESTERN beat MST, whoa.

    BUCKEYES 30-23 IN OT.

    BUCKEYES a bit sloppy on the road but Wisconsin played pretty good.

    Oh Urban 20-0 on the road. 😉
