One of the "new" ways that Burke (data creator) et al are using with this type of data is finding the Expected Points Added for each plays. The EPA allows one to determine how valuable players are to a team's performance. http://www.advancednflstats.com/2010/01/expected-points-ep-and-expected-points.html http://www.advancednflstats.com/2010/01/expected-points-ep-a... I've been trying to work at the college football level with this same strategy but I'm still trying to figure out how its calculated. It seems trivial but it takes a lot of data organizing.
