Both compared a few offensive game stat ratios with some
predictive value. What they ignore is the effect that
strength of schedule has had on these numbers.

Teams, that ND played, averaged 11 points better against
their opponents. That has not been factored in...Tom:mad:

The only prediction I saw from ESPN was Andrea Adelson's. It was her opinion, not a statistical analysis.

Got a link for the SI one for me?

I don't care what people predict ni nuthing. ND has the outcome in their hands and can decide this game.
Its all in how they decide to play. Statistics Shmatistics.

This.

This is both a positive and a negative. Mainly negative, because this team never does well when they are in control of their own destiny.
