Default How do u adjust strength of opp. in college sports?

hey there,

ive spent time learning how to handicap pro sports, where there's obviously more parity.. but in a college sport, how do u gauge the relative strenghts of opposition..

for instance..when dr. bob or anyone compares a team in the nfl..
giants' averaged 4.3 ypr against teams that would give up 4.1 to an "average" team...

how does one determine what they'd give up to an "average" team?
would this be harder to do in college where schedule strenghts can vary so significantly?

thanks for your time.. all input appreciated.

thanks for the reply,

i understand that, but i was wondering specifically for college football, when it comes to comparing the relative strengths between the rushing game and the passing game... the overall strength of schedule may not account for this.
thanks
