Continuing from the Case 3 analysis, in this study I look scale the competitive effect of other schools by whether or not they are in Big 6 or "AQ" (auto-qualifier) conferences. With respect to the mathematics, I multiply the negative populations of schools that are not one of the Big 6 conferences by some factor less than 1 (e.g. 0.50, 0.75, et cetera).
The point of this is to recognize that higher profile programs are more successful in attracting recruits and therefore it is more difficult for another school nearby to attract recruits. One great example of where this scaling factor is expected to have a big impact is in the state of Ohio with its plethora of MAC schools (but only Ohio State and Cincinnati in Big 6 conferences). The scaling factor accounts for the fact that Ohio State rarely worries about losing recruits to Akron (or Toledo or Kent State or Miami Ohio...).
A couple of important notes before diving in. 1.) I did not count Notre Dame as a Big 6 conference. Or Boise State. Or Utah, etc. A flaw in this study, perhaps, but I plan on using other metrics to gauge a program's prestige in the future independent of conference affiliation. 2.) You'll notice that each college's effective population is higher than it the Case 2 base case. I made sure after applying a school's negative population effect to the entire country to add that population back to the school itself. Otherwise the ranking would be weighted towards small schools. Adding back the population to each school recognizes that schools aren't competing with themselves. This is not an issue (for ranking purposes) in the first Case 2 analysis because each school is decremented by the same amount.
The changes seen here as the competitive influence of non-AQ schools is scaled down are not as dramatic as those seen in the corresponding Case 2 sub-analysis. The dominant trend is the movement of the hot spots north out of Florida and into Georgia. Unlike when all recruits are considered this region does not really migrate west towards Texas. One neat effect is the ring made the shcools in eastern Texas that seen to form the western bound of the better recruiting grounds.
The losers are the usual suspects. The Pacific northwest corner drops to the bottom of the list making it all the more amazing to see Oregon and Oregon State playing for a trip to Rose Bowl tonite. There isn't all that much movement in the rankings as the scaling factor is decreased but it is interesting to see the USC-UCLA duo move to lower rankings as schools surrounded by smaller programs rise up the list.
