The most exciting teams in college football in 2022.  This is the 2022 college football excitement index. I'll just read it straight from college football data. It measures the overall excitement of the game based on swings in in-game win probability, the average game scores around 4.0, there is no limit to the upside, but the most exciting games will finish 6.0 or higher. 

So which teams had basically, if you watched one team for the entire season, which teams were the most fun to watch, which ones, you know, really were entertaining football?  I think that the top 10 is going to surprise you. 

#1 is Miami of Ohio. They of course being in the MAC.  Miami of Ohio averaged a 7.26 on their games. I mean it just absolutely bonkers. When you look at the swings and win probability in their games. 

#2 Ball State, another MAC team

#3 Texas Tech, and Texas Tech makes the most sense to me because -- now Miami Ohio and Ball State played a bunch of close games, so that makes absolute perfect sense, but Texas Tech is mainly because of their fourth down attempts. Zack Kittley loves to go. They study analytics. They go for it more than anybody else in the country. This team was all over the place. So Texas Tech at three makes sense. 

#4 is Buffalo. So the Bulls, another MAC team. Close games; makes sense.

#5 Georgia State. Now, that does make sense. They played some really close games. They lost some close games when we get into uh, post game win expectancy and who overperformed and who underperformed etc. You'll see Georgia State had some interesting games. 

#6 Georgia Southern

#7 Eastern Michigan. Another MAC team. Close games in the MAC means huge swings in win probability during ballgames. 

#8 Coastal Carolina.  Makes perfect because they did play some really close games in the Sun Belt.

#9 East Carolina 

#10 West Virginia

I think that those top 10 would surprise you. Right. Let's go through conference by conference. I'll give you the top two in each conference. The AAC, #1 was East Carolina. #2 is Houston.  In the ACC, #1 was Wake Forest. #2 Virginia Tech. ▪ That's right. In Brent Keys first season, they were one of the more exciting teams. Postgame win expectancy, I think, will shock you on Virginia Tech. Big 12, Texas Tech and West Virginia - we already talked about those. In the Big 10, #1 was Indiana, #2 was Nebraska. That's right. Nebraska, the same bunch that fired their coach after week two.  Conference USA, Florida Atlantic and UTEP. The Independents, Liberty was #1 and Army was #2. In the MAC, Miami Ohio and Ball State. We talked about those already. In the Mountain West, #1 was Wyoming, #2 was San Jose State. ▪ And yes, I think that those two do make sense. You play close games, you're gonna have huge swings. 

In the PAC 12, #1 was Cal. #2, Oregon State. The 10 win Beavers were #2 in the most exciting teams to watch in the PAC 12. The SEC #1 was Arkansas. If you go back and actually think about the games that Arkansas played in... a lot of close ones, a lot of swings in win probability, etcetera. Think about that Alabama game, they were down 28-0. Then they were down 28-23 then they ended up getting run out. Texas A&M at #2, kind of the same thing. Closer games. A lot of close games. The Sun Belt, #1 Georgia State - we talked about that. And then #2 Georgia Southern
