Minnesota +19 1/2 surely has to be the lock of the year.

In for TERPS.

Bigger dogs than Cuse' seems redic, but whatever. Could see us losing by 21 or winning by like 4. Just hope it wasn't an undeserved ranking and we actually prove to be a solid team going forward.

CJ Brown has been the absolute man this year. Should be a good ol' QB DUEL with him and Winston running things. Excited excited excited.

Christ. You're right. weird that that flows everywhere through the mode except the tab where I make the weeks Watchability stuff. Also was missing a handful of other tire fire games. See the corrected version below and please accept my apologies. Thanks for finding that!

Nebraska-Illinois line is down to Nebraska -8 largely on the basis that it doesn't look like Taylor will play Saturday barring some miracle

A team ranked by the model as #21 @ #35.

So two decently good teams in a matchup that rates as a coinflip. Seems promising to me!

Rock and Hard Place are both pretty damn solid, but watching them duke it out isn't my idea of entertainment

i was just trolling. i went through most of the chart.

but ya what schu said. i dont mind 9-3 games because the defenses/talent are that good and/or bad weather that affects the play. but i dont think msu or iowa fit with the former.

correct me if im wrong here, but doesnt your chart say "close game (by final score) = watchable game?"

It considers both the quality of the teams involved (lower quality is worse obv) and the likelihood of a good game based on each team's likelihood of winning (the more deviation from 50% the worse)
