Ok, I guess you are only concerned about the line for "entertainment purposes only".
These aren't lines, they are projections. I'm interested in them because it's fun to get a gauge of SEC games this season.

LSU-BYU at 86%?
Wow, somebody isn't paying attention. BYU might win that game outright.

seems pretty ridiculous
You're right. Should be a much higher percentage, and it'll be Auburn by at least double that

They return more starters than any P5 team and would have won last year if Kenny Hill knees the ball instead of scoring

Arkansas went 7-5 last year and beat TCU in OT, so.....
Pretty similar

So according to this, we will lose to ND, Tennessee, Florida and Auburn?? Lol ok then. This will be a good bump at the end of the season.

If it's including last year's defensive stats then all predictions for UT are very much fricked up. That defense finished near the bottom of CFB due to an unprecedented number of injuries. We lost more starts than any team in all of CFB due to injuries.
Have you ever re-watched the UT v A&M game? The number of injuries on both sides, but especially for UT, was just unreal.

Arkansas is undervalued. Quite a lot too.
I'm sure that this model will get it down pretty tight after a week or two, but a lot of these lines are off quite a bit at the moment.

As far as TCU vs Arkansas goes, I more or less agree with this prediction. It should be a coin toss. TCU and Arkansas both will be considerably improved over last season, and last year's game was awfully damn close. TCU may be a few points better than Hogs, but Hogs are at home. I wouldn't bet the game either way.

Georgia has
- 3 heavy favorite games (75%+) (App, Samford, Mizzou)
- 4 favorite games (60-74%) (State, Vandy, USCe, UK)
- 4 toss ups games (40-59%) (UT, UF, ND, GT)
- 1 underdog game (0-39%) (AU)
Much better way to look at it than WIN/LOSS

TCU is ranked #3 on PS' Experience Chart. Arkansas is ranked at #90.

The problem with these is they don't take into consideration the schedule.
Arkansas is extremely fortunate to get LSU the week after Bama, and is a def factor in how close its been lately.

The real problem is people read to much into these projections and don't understand what they are or what they are trying to do.
It is clear that these projections are only trying to factor in certain variables that are easier to consider than others. Obviously they are still going to be wrong often, especially the first couple of weeks. The idea is that as the season goes on, it becomes more accurate.
