A throwaway numbers thread (aka: a weak attempt at breaking up a bit of the recent troll threads).

1. Ohio St .744 (29-10)
2. Oklahoma St .684 (26-12)
3. UL-Lafayette .643 (27-15)
4. Clemson .639 (23-13)
5. LSU** .636 (28-16)
6. Michigan St .630 (29-17)
7. Auburn** .628 (27-16)
8. Northwestern .627 (32-19)
9. Cincinnati .625 (20-11)
9. Alabama** .625 (15-9)
11. South Carolina** .620 (31-19)

The volume of 7-point games Ohio St has been in over the last decade and the rate at which they win is wild.

Notre Dame has been in the most 7-point games in the nation in the last decade (58). They are 32-26 in those games.

I gotta admit, I'm having trouble spotting the troll here.

ETA: Oh THERE it is.

So you're saying we're better than Auburn and Alabama? I'll take it.

Alabama has the most wins by a mile of anybody AND the least # of 7 point games of anybody on that chart.

It means not only has Alabama been winning like crazy, but the wins are usually not even close.

It’s easy to be better when Alabama is always beating you by more than 7.

I promise I wasn’t trying to pull a fast one. My hopes for the way this thread would go went something like this:

“oh! Neat-o!”

“What are the games my team was involved in?”

posts breakdown of a few games, by request

“Oh golly. That game was super close. My heart stopped”

“yeppers. ::insert % of losses by 7 points:: of their losses in the last decade has been by 7 points or fewer”

“wowzers... that’s rough”

“Do you have the numbers for ::insert team not in the list::?”

I have to tip my hat to the Ragin' Cajuns. They certainly know how to pull close games out of the fire.

Going to go ahead and finish this out:

All SEC teams
1. LSU 0.636 (28-16)
2. Auburn 0.628 (27-16)
3. Alabama 0.625 (15-9)
4. South Carolina 0.620 (31-19)
5. Florida 0.588 (20-14)
6. Georgia 0.522 (24-22)
7. Mississippi St 0.514 (18-17)
7. Missouri 0.514 (19-18)
9. Kentucky 0.500 (21-21)
9. Texas A&M 0.500 (24-24)
11. Vanderbilt 0.436 (17-22)
12. Tennessee .395 (15-23)
13. Arkansas 0.375 (15-25)
14. Ole Miss 0.367 (11-19)

If you’re wondering: yes, Alabama has played in the fewest 7-point games in the nation over the last decade.

I, for one, am jealous of you bastards for that fact alone. Meanwhile, all the rest of us have had months, if not years, taken off of our lives due to heartbreaking losses and/or close wins.
