BCS National Championship Game Participation Probabilities

Will your team play in the BCS National Championship Game? The BCS National Championship Game Participation Probabilities table presents the probability that a team plays in the championship game depended upon three ways of playing its remaining games. These play methods include winning all remaining games, winning all but one remaining games, and current winning probabilites. All other future unplayed games are assumed won/lost with a probability based upon relative team strengths.

New - So how well did we do in predicting who would play in the National Championship Game? Our computer model has had Notre Dame ranked #1 most of the year. So we got that half correct. Our computer model, like many other existing computer models, rank both Florida and Stanford high due to thier Strength of Schedule, passing Alabama. We will be working to make the list more accurate next year.
