What are the BAWF ratings? It is combing Best-case scenario with Actual results, Worst-case scenario and Flip-flop scenarios, then applying a winning percentage for the results. Best-case measures the number of wins a team would have if they had won all their games that were decided by 8 points or less; Worst-case measures a team's record if it had lost all of its close games; Flip-flop is what the record would be if it had won the close games it actually lost & lost the close games it actually won. Actual is the team's actual record.
A team with 3 or more close wins usually - but not always - has a tougher time in the post-season against a similar team with two or less close wins. And most teams with 3 or more close wins usually have a worse record the following season.
Here are the current BAWF Ratings for teams with two or fewer losses:
Alabama 9-0 9-0 8-1 8-1 = 34-2 .944

North Carolina 7-2 7-2 4-5 4-5 = 22-14 .611
Navy 7-1 6-2 2-6 3-5 = 18-14 .563
Note: teams with the same ratings are not necessarily considered to be equal in strength, but have a fairly equal chance of doing well the next season, barring major losses in personnel. The lower a team's rating, the more likely they are to have a worse record next season.
