Null hypothesis = SEC win odds are 50% Hypot 1 = SEC win odds are >50% Set alpha = 0.05 1 - alpha = 0.95 In Excel: =BINOMDIST(81,158,0.5,1) = 0.6545 Check for significance: 0.6545 < 0.95 therefore the null hypothesis cannot be rejected with 95% confidence.

I dispute your claim and submit the last championship game as evidence. Using these numbers, the SEC is a combined 81-77. Or only 2 games away from 79-79. This does not disprove the null hypothesis that the odds of an SEC winning against an FBS team is 50%.

Story of the game: UVA's D-line unable to leave field due to GT's O-line paving job.

The #2 SEC team is a "lower tier"? ummm... ok... Never say never when Disney dollars are involved. The point of the 4 team playoff (instead of 8) is to give the SEC with 2 schools a 50% chance of winning vs a 25% chance...

http://www.atomicfootball.com/archive/teams/tm_9.html Atomic football updated. 3% chance of winning out. UVA: 73.4% NCState: 70.9% Clempson: 33% uGA: 17.3%

Good. I hope to see him bust through the Clempson D line like Kool-aid.

I'm pretty sure we had one or two running plays break down and JT threw the ball away to salvage yardage...

Cherry picking! The SEC has lost lots of big and small bowl games. They get ignored as ESPN points to the one W. Last season SEC lost BOTH BCS games, including the big enchilada. The season before that Louisville spanked Florida in the Sugar Bowl. The season before that we got SEC vs SEC and...

That would un-rank all the SEC teams except the top two? And rank half the ACC teams? Sorry, winning won't overcome this bias...

Been yelling "Holding!" since the Duke game. Our guys would get free on one of those critical plays and would has to piggyback-drag the OL to the QB.

If we scored a little less easily, that would reduce that number.

I have noticed that the way we spread the field, the passing D ranking tends to be a better predictor than the running D ranking (although a stout D line tends to reduce the dive option significantly). I need to offer my mea culpa to Mr. Snoddy: I was wrong about your cutting/juking ability...

He'll be fine. This year is a character building year for the run we make next year. I'm sure no one is beating him up harder over those misses than he is. He'll correct it. Give him time.

Now THAT would be a great class. No more writing about fee-fees and flowers. Give me a well written paper that explains the beauty of Euler's formula, yet explains the concepts so well that a 12 year old could understand it.

“We’re here to protect you from making money.”

That is how it ended up in reality. I was commenting on how the hire was sold to us at that time: Unique scheme, competitive defensively against almost everyone, and the *pros* run the 3-4 so more future pros would want to play for Groh and his SB ring. We found out later that there were very...

Wasn't that what Groh's 3-4 was supposed to do?
