Week 2 Computer Predictions

by bobothevol on Sep 9, 2010 6:35 PM EDT

Last week the computer went 11 - 4 with a confidence rating of 79% (based on my own magical formula!) and really dropped the ball with Washington vs BYU, whom the Computer said would never ever beat ever at all! This week featured several entertaining games between Oregon and Tennessee but fairly mellow stuff overall, though it should be noted that my XBox really likes Auburn over Mississippi State tonight, with the Bulldog's lone win an 18-15 Overtime Victory.

Matchup		Confidence	Average Score
Auburn @ Mississippi State	17 - 10	9 - 1	25.7	9.6
Alabama vs Penn State	45 - 7	9 - 1	30.2	20.6
Oregon @ Tennessee	34 - 24	6 - 4	25.5	22.3
Oklahoma vs Florida State	30 - 23	7 - 3	30.6	22.7
Miami @ Ohio State	24 - 17	4 - 6	25.4	31.3
South Carolina vs Georgia	31 - 25	7 - 3	28.9	19.7

Game 9: 24-14 Oregon (OT) Oregon scored with under 1:30 left to send the game to OT and Tennessee couldn’t get into the end zone after Oregon did. QB play was horrible and both Thomas and Simms got injured. Oregon was 34% passing, Tennessee was 30%.
