Will tune into the Tenn/Akron game just to see a final of 51-4.

How bad was Jimmy Lake as a HC?
Peterson 2015-2019:
Consistent Top 15 Team
Lake 2020-2021:
Absolute Dogshit
Deboer 2022:
Hot start. Top 25 potential

Akron with 4?

Math formulas don't always conform to normal football scores.
In reality it would round down to 3.

Tennessee has to punt, and the long snapper puts the ball over the kickers head.
Then, on the next drive, Tennessee starts from their own 4, Hooker goes back to pass, but throws the ball away while getting sacked, and it's called for intentional grounding.

It could happen. I was thinking: controversial call puts Akron in field-goal range. It makes the kick, causing storm of mustard bottles. Officials huddle, rather than call the game a forfeit, they award one point to the Zips.

I prefer this to math being bad at football

SOG, how has your model performed the first two weeks, both against the spread and overall?
Posted on 9/15/22 at 2:54 pm to SummerOfGeorge
All 3 have A&M scoring in the 20s. Sadly I don't see us even getting there.

Didn't do it Week 0 or week 1, but Week 2 went pretty well. That week was 100% projection from a formula of prior year/returning players/transfer/recruiting. This week is 70% current year data and 30% projection.
Week 2
vs line : 5-3 (projection = spread in State/Zona so theoretically no pick)
vs total : 6-3
The stats only use FBS vs FBS games, so there are some teams with only 1 FBS game that are really skewed still. Oregon is a prime example. Even with a SoS adjustment their defense is like 4th from last, because the only data included for them is giving up a literal touchdown on every drive. That will obviously even out some with more results (or they'll do it again and we'll actually believe they are that bad).

Miami beating A&M by 4. Will the rest of the Maggies be back with full force or will the few left abandon the Rant after a loss to Miami?

I'm curious to see if SCAR can get 22 points.
They got 20 in overtime in 2019. And 20 points back in 2015.
It isn't a common occurrence for them against our defenses.

I corrected mine manually to prevent it(a function did it).
<= 1 = 0
<= 4 = 3
<= 6 = 6
8 = 7
11 = 10(I think, it's been years)
It's not "the math", and it kind of skewed the spread prediction a little. But I figured it's a hell of a lot better than what SP+ has with the 57-1 score Alabama score.

they scored 13 against our defense. And our offense couldn't stay on the field all day thanks to coley. The last time they scored 20 against our defense was as you mentioned in 2015, when tehy scored 20 exactly with steve spurrier at the helm.

I imagine if we sniff 20 it will be in garbage time
Posted on 9/15/22 at 3:57 pm to SummerOfGeorge
Ole Miss by 28? 16 point spread is a bit much on Ga Tech imo. Expect OM to win by 13 or 14.

Agreed. But to be fair, they could score on Saturday with special teams or defensive touchdowns too.
The number in my head is 13.
I think only Tennessee and Bama topped that number last season.
This season's number could be different. I don't think it has been identified, yet.
