TDR CFB Data Screen Week 5

Jay Stein looks at what players stand out in his model from the early part of the 2024 college football season.

Welcome to the college football (#devy) data screen, where each week, we will look at some of the best college football players based on some of the most interesting analytical metrics. Below, you will find positional screens based on thresholds for metrics that we think are important for each position. The lists of players are by no means exhaustive and will become more refined as we collect more data over the weeks. And finally, we have a link to my college football week 5 data dump on X.
