Chest, True? -- Relative SRS scores over the last 30 years for UW and UO

Context:
1.0 is worst SRS rating in the Pac10/12, 0.0 is the best.
2016 uses the current SRS scores.
Colors are the school colors (I substituted green for Oregon instead of Cal blue)
Thoughts:
Chip Kelly was a hell of a coach.
Gilby, leader of midgets, was not.

A little more explanation on the methodology:
Used this site
http://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/years/2016-ratings.html
I used a formula to convert the Pac 12 ranking of SRS from a scale of 1-12 (or 1-10) to a scale of 0.0-1.0
Formula:
0-1 Scaled rank = ( Pac10/12 rank - 1 ) / ( Number of Pac schools - 1 )
Example: UW is currently ranked 9 overall in SRS, which is 1st in the Pac 12.
( 1 - 1 )/( 12 - 1) = 0 in 2016
Example: UO is currently ranked 56 overall in SRS, which is 10th in the Pac 12.
( 10 - 1 )/( 12 - 1) = 0.8181... in 2016
I went with the 0-1 scale over a 0-12 (@Owen12 har har) scale so that I could normalize the Pac12 and Pac 10 teams. -

I will say this until I'm blue in the face. The worst coach we ever had, easily, was Gilby. He was so fucking putridly awful it is unreal.
Also, this predicts we should win rather easily tomorrow. So, it's obviously bollocks because we are getting slaughtered. -
Here is Stanford.
Coaching matters. Year 3 matters.
Technically these would be better as scatterplots, or straight lines, but the curved ones look nicer.

Here is one for the relative strength of the Pac-12 from 1992 to 2016. These are absolute SRS rankings.
Blue is the SRS of the strongest team, Orange is the median SRS, Grey is the SRS of the weakest team.
Notes:
The number of teams that are rated has increased from 107 in 1992 to 128 in 2016. This may explain the slight trend in the worst Pac12 team getting worse over time.
The best team in the Pac-10 sucked in 1999. Who?? Willingham's Rose bowl team at Stanford.
The average strength of the Pac fluctuates but hasn't changed that much over time.

If you flipped the vertical axis, or changed your variable to 1-relativeposition (obviously those do the exact same thing in effect), good results would be high and bad results would be low which is a lot more intuitive I think. Cool charts none the less.

Shoutout to @Mad_Son for asking for an obvious conversion. I will admit I thought of asking, but didn't because I thought anyone who would put an inverted X axis on a chart was probably retarded and already stretched beyond their capacity.
Some faith in humanity is restored. The 'more intuitive' charts should be pinned for 3 reasons:
1) they expose Gilby's manboobs as the true assassin of our team, though the slide under Rick was undeniable.
2) they show that Harbs took the Tree from the lowest of the low to damn good in 3 fucking years.
and
3) they show that Lambo's teams underperformed like a motherfucker.
3 points that Doogs hate. -

also my dads said I was smart, but I chose to follow husky football in the mid 2000s, so there's that. -

Makes sense. I'm used to looking at data for any kind of significance, but at the end of the day, everyone just wants to get high.AIRWOLF said:
