Seems pretty accurate, but I think there are a couple teams that I'm thinking may lose/win 1-2 more games then projected pretty easily looking over the remaining schedule.

So like any stat based ranking/prediction tool, the more data you have in it, the better it will be.

Speaking of having more data, we do...since all the games simmed for thisafternoon, I've updated the spreadsheet, and have the new predictions....

I think it's because it's based on points scored and points scored against....Chicago is predicted to have some pretty close games in the future, and the points (scored and allowed) from the teams you play vs the points you put up/allowed let some of the really close ones slide the other way.

For example, you were predicted to beat beer town until after today (by about 1 point), and now beer town in predicted to win by less than a point...

Essentially it appears it's used to predict the spread based on points got/given and who you got them against then generate w-l record based on comparisons.


However I'm guessing it doesn't change if you're projected to win/lose say 7 games by few points. So for example you could have a tough schedule ahead and you're projected to lose all 7 games by 2points, however what will probably end up happening is you'll win 1-2 of those or vice versa. It's pretty accurate, but my guess is it treats 7 1 point projected differences win/loss the same as 7 15point chance win/loss.

So it should give you a fairly accurate idea of the spread between opposing teams, however your end record however can be quite different. Also to a certain degree while your "real" record is hard your "projected" record isn't so failing to beat the spread or a team you play later beating to spread can shift your rank down.

I do think it is fairly accurate for most teams, it will likely be inaccurate for teams that face several teams of equal quality in the second half of the season.

Yeah, Fremont is predicted to beat the riverrats by 217-0.....And in Satchmo's original thread, someone posted that they had a game predicted to be 5 hundred something to 0....lol

So those serve to illustrate that it's not 100% accurate.

Thanks,

I'd be surprised to see us go 16-0, I think at least one team out there has our number.

If we win by less than a point, that would be something!

How do we go from 5-1 and finish 7-9?

I think this needs a bit of tweaking...
