Amazing work you did here, man. Really appreciate it and the time and effort you took to put it together with a few of your thoughts. Original analysis in the sports/stats world, outside of a few outlets, is rare.

This is an awesome thread!!!
Meant to look this up earlier. Sorry. The 95% win expectancy in the Memphis game was the fourth highest by a losing team all season and the highest for a Power 5 team in a loss. We're also the only SEC team -- and one of the few Power 5 teams -- to have lost two games in which we had win expectancies over 50%. Also, Memphis' 5% win expectancy was the second lowest of any winning team all season. Oh, and Arkansas's 36% win expectancy was the third lowest by a winning SEC team all season. (Vandy had a 13% win expectancy in its win over Colorado St. and U. Miss. had a 26% win expectancy against Tennessee.)Quote:

Yeah, that doesn't make me feel any better at all.
