Stat Model Picks for AU - UGA

I started attempting my own predictive model similar to the model SoG runs a few weeks ago. It basically uses each teams statistics relative to your opponents averages (P5 only) and uses those numbers to come up with a range of potential scores and a % chance of victory for each team.
Average Prediction:
UGA - 19
AU - 17
High end:
AU - 33
UGA - 30
Low end:
UGA - 8
AU - 5
Running this 10000 times yielded a 52% chance of victory for AU. Even though the average score was in UGA's favor, I'm assuming the Jekyll/Hyde nature of AU's offense swung quite a few of these in their favor.
I really, really, really want to see this game end 8-5
I messed up the math. It is not 52% AU. It is 48.9% AU, 47.5% UGA, 3.6% tie. (I haven't figured out how to deal with ties yet, so I'll distribute them 50/50.)
AU - 50.7% Chance of victory
UGA - 49.3 %
Average Prediction:
UGA - 19
AU - 17
High end:
AU - 33
UGA - 30
Low end:
UGA - 8
AU - 5

5 safeties and a fg. Makes sense.

9-6 Georgia in an ugly puddle of diarrhea type game.

I'm thinking AU gets an early safety and a field goal in the 3rd quarter to go up 5-0. UGA scores a td late and goes for 2 to make it a 3 point game. 8-5

Man I haven't gotten that good at excel yet. I need to learn all the ins and outs of it.

This is what actual scientists call inconclusive.

RD, they need to find Terry Bowden to announce this to the masses during Gameday.
