🏈 cfbseedR is on CRAN. An R package to simulate college football seasons: standings, conference champions, and a seeded 12-team Playoff field — using each conference's own published tiebreaker procedure. Pairs with cfbfastR. install.packages("cfbseedR") Built by @saiemgilani.bsky.social
The cfbseedR hex logo: a dark navy hexagon with a gold border, the name cfbseedR in white, and a symmetric twelve-team playoff bracket drawn in slate and pale blue below it, converging on a gold diamond at the centre.

🏈 Good news / bad news for anyone computing CFB EPA/WPA themselves this weekend. Worth two minutes before today's kickoffs. Good news: on GitHub, EP and WP now load from the shared cfb_model_artifacts bundle — the same artifact sportsdataverse-py scores with.

Today is one of those full-circle moments. I took this photo last night in the Iowa State Statistics building, Snedecor Hall. A few feet in front of me is where I defended my PhD thesis. Directly to my right is the room where I took my first graduate R course in 2013 (early days of RStudio).
