    Whatever bs equation this thing is has hated Washington and loved Oregon. I'm pretty sure they had Oregon's percentage really high going into the last game.

    FPI is always impressed by stars

    FPI has Ohio State as the best team in the country and Penn State 4th. 7-5 TAMU is equal to 12-0 UW.

    FPI is twash as fuck
    Yet people love their strength of record metric. It should just be another data point of many.
    FPI is used for theoretical games and betting

    SOR is used by the committee for ranking teams

    They are not the same

    Whatever bs equation this thing is has hated Washington and loved Oregon. I'm pretty sure they had Oregon's percentage really high going into the last game.

    It was like 57% Oregon probability for the last game.

    I gotta tell you though - I don't know that 75% is that far off the mark. This one doesn't feel like a coin flip to me and the rational side of my brain keeps saying it's exceedingly difficult to beat a tough Oregon squad 3 times in a row.
    You are struggling with reality, Boss. Turn that loser PTSD off for a minute and smoke some more weed, it will help you talk the appropriate amount of shit.

    My half-brain says we have won 19 in a row, beat them twice in a row with the same squad and are poised to do it a third time. DeBoner has got his reads down against OU and how to win big games. Defense has tightened up, Bruener will have a game Friday, Penix will be in the zone...This is a STATEMENT gayme. Deal with it!!!!1!

    You really think they're using that specific metric? FPI is predictive and SOR is static look at resume. However, the SOR and committee rankings are not correlated exactly. ESPN's SOR is how the average top 25 team would fair against the same schedule.

    Would fit in well in the Hitler Youth. Pretty sure I saw him punch a pro-Israel protester last week!
    I heard Isreal and the IDF is new the Hitler. Everyone is Hitler really.

    I'm severely torn between the smoke weed and talk shit side of my brain and the objective side of my brain.
