Week 7 Predicto Thread
« on: October 11, 2012, 02:13:04 PM »
It's no CHIRP/ORCHID, but I have my own little system.
It does not take into account previous wins/losses.
It does not take into account home/away team.
It does not take into account SOS
It is predominately based on YPP, PPP, and TO%
I only have data for all Big 12 teams, and all teams currently in the Coach's Top 25.
So therefore only Big 12 teams and Top 25 teams playing each other are in this predicto.
Welp here goes! :D

Texas 30
Oklahoma 32

Oklahoma State 42
Kansas 25

West Virginia 33
Texas Tech 37

Baylor 31
TCU 35

Stanford 19
Notre Dame 26

South Carolina 24
LSU 22

Texas A&M 41
Louisiana Tech 33

and finally....

Kansas State 31
Iowa State 21

My system, where I just casually watch football on Saturday and make uninformed decisions, says the winners are as follows:

Oklahoma, close.

Oklahoma State, blowout.

West Virginia, very close.

Baylor, blowout.

Stanford, close.

South Carolina, close.

Texas A&M, very close.

Kansas State, blowout.

This system takes into account previous wins/losses, home/away team, and SOS. It does not take into account YPP, PPP, or TO%.

1. Guess which Big 12 team has the best Passing Defense numbers right now?

2. Yeah, hard to factor a QB injury into the numbers. Oh well, they'll work themselves out as the season progresses.

It seems a little strange that #26 is better than #15 on a neutral field. There must not be much separation at the bottom of the rankings. It's hard to criticize a system that nails the top as well as yours does, though.

I agree, and comparing the numbers, they are fairly close. Hence the 2 point victory. It came down to the matchup of

UT OFF 0.65 PPP vs OU DEF 0.25 PPP
vs
OU OFF 0.53 PPP vs UT DEF 0.40 PPP

Basically the mocat system says that though UT has overall a slightly better rating than OU, OU's defensive advantage is greater than UT's offensive advantage when they match up against each other.
The reason UT is ranked higher than OU in the rankings is OU does not take care of the ball quite as well. But this was not a huge factor in a game with limited plays (68 for UT and 69 for OU)

It does not take into account SOS
It is predominately based on YPP, PPP, and TO%
I only have data for all Big 12 teams, and all teams currently in the Coach's Top 25.
So therefore only Big 12 teams and Top 25 teams playing each other are in this predicto.

I think we will beat WVU regardless of what happens this week, but I would rather beat them when they are still in the top 5. Tech will be a tough game for them, though.

I adjusted the predictor formula to be slightly closer to the rankings formula. It did not affect any outcomes, but the games got a little closer and slightly lower-scoring.

Texas 30
Oklahoma 31

Oklahoma State 40
Kansas 24

West Virginia 32
Texas Tech 35

Baylor 29
TCU 32

Stanford 17
Notre Dame 24

South Carolina 23
LSU 20

Louisiana Tech 32

and finally...

Kansas State 30
