You can't reduce it to straight metrics. No one weighs wins and losses evenly. That gave us the BCS computer model and a) it still sucked and b) they had to combine 7 computer programs and take the average.

Well the BCS still used poll rankings.

And there are at least 90 models available, and I'm sure more would create models if there was more of an incentive.
