Fun with scoring stats (A&M at Ole Miss)

Last week, I used these to predict the score within 6 points each way so I'll try again.

Texas A&M averages 48.25 points per game and allows 11.75 points per game.

They scored 17 against Florida (allows 12.75), 48 against SMU (allows 32.75), 70 against South Carolina State (allows 31.80), and 58 against Arkansas (allows 40.60).

That's an average of 18.78 points per game more than their opponents allow.

They allowed 20 against Florida (scores 30.50), 3 against SMU (scores 23.75), 14 against SCSU (scores 15.00), and 10 against Arkansas (scores 23.20).

That's an average of 11.36 less than their opponents score.

Using those stats, they will hold Ole Miss to 21 points and score 46.

Ole Miss averages 32.20 points per game and allows 27.20 points per game.

They scored 49 against Central Arkansas (allows 26.80), 28 against UTEP (allows 29.00), 31 against t.u. (allows 21.00), 39 against Tulane (allows 42.75), and 14 against Alabama (allows 7.00)

That's an average of 6.89 points more than their opponents allow.

They allowed 27 to Central Arkansas (scores 40.00), 10 to UTEP (scores 20.40), 66 to t.u. (scores 47.25), 0 to Tulane (scores 8.00), and 33 to Alabama (scores 40.20)

That's an average of 3.97 less than their opponents score.

Using those stats, Ole Miss scores 19 and allows 44

So, using the predictor:

Ole Miss scores between 19-21
A&M scores between 44-46

Closer than the last game, but Ole Miss is a better team and it's on the road.

Using the A&M stats to predict the rest of the season: (consider any margin more than 10 as a win/loss and anything less as a toss-up)

A&M 56, Louisiana Tech 41
A&M 31, LSU 28
A&M 42, Auburn 6
A&M 32, Mississippi State 25
Alabama 28, A&M 26
A&M 42, Sam Houston State 25
A&M 42, Missouri 16
