ESPN: Stat Profiles Of College Contenders

We track dozens of statistics at Football Outsiders, including a number of metrics that isolate offensive and defensive drive efficiency success. Every team has its own unique statistical profile, but we can run a test to identify teams that have more statistical similarities than not. We ran such a similarity test, comparing the current AP top five teams against every team from each of the past five years. The results don't necessarily outline a predetermined path for the rest of the season, but the commonalities (and differences) give us some indication of what to watch for in October and November.

Would be great to have these metrics available the form of an app :)
