Re: Tulane 34 - Charlotte 3: Wave now have 30 Wins over 3 Seasons.

Outlaw, Thanks for details. I actually think analytics have been great for sports and really do help understand what’s going on most of the time. However Big Data again is only as good as the coders. As you explain, they really missed what occurred on the field Thursday. I would also note when a te...

Re: Field Storming Factoid

ESPN reports USC EAST was fined $250,000 for the field storming Saturday after its win Saturday. However according to SEC policy the fine goes to its defeated opponent, here 🏧 So if AAC has similar policy, our generous alums standing on the Angry Wave Saturday night about 630pm instead of in line a...

Re: Poll Update 11/3/25: Coaches #26, AP TBA

To go along with the overrating of P teams, the voters no longer feel obligated to rank g5 teams since they think they have Boise as a lock to be the rep. There's some truth to this. They want to feel they have a say in pushing the committee on who the G5 is, but once they have a chosen one (boise)...

That Over looks very doable….
Team total over or full game over? I would be fine temple scoring the same as Charlotte but that will make full game more difficult

Re: WAVE opens at -24.5

I hate to be that guy that does this every week, but I have no idea where 24.5 is coming from. We are -26.5 at most reputable books. Maybe that's the offshore opener or something, but thats not an available number anywhere I can see.

Here is some ammo for silver et al. Post game win expectancy 95.2% but the adjusted margin was just 13 points. In other words we won by a lot more than the underlying metrics think we should have. The pick 6 is probably some of that but certainly not all Is that due to the style of play in the firs...

Re: 11/1/24 & 11/2/24: Other Games of Interest for TU’s Ranking

Boise is playing extremely well right now and their defense has picked it up. We will see if anybody left can challenge them (looking at you sjsu) before the title game. They are very likely to go 13-1 and would be more than deserving of a playoff spot, even though that would leave us in a disappoi...

Re: 11/1/24 & 11/2/24: Other Games of Interest for TU’s Ranking

If Boise loses their CCG and we win ours, it doesn't matter how good they are or how highly rated. We get the autobid and they don't; it goes to the highest rated champion. They'd have to pray for an at large bid. Of course. That's the main hope we have left and as long as we keep winning that hope...

Re: Tulane 34 - Charlotte 3: Wave now have 30 Wins over 3 Seasons.

If it matters, we are covering the spread by an average of 11 points per game using closing lines. That's pretty good. Our worst miss was the Rice game where we failed to cover by 8.5, but we are bolstered by covering USF and UAB by 31 and 31.5 respectively. Here's the game by game breakdown from o...

Re: Tulane 34 - Charlotte 3: Wave now have 30 Wins over 3 Seasons.

We didn’t beat Rice or UNT by anywhere near 30. We would have if we had balance. We beat the spread as a road favorite at UNT against a decent team. How is that subpar in any way? We beat a mediocre Rice by two TDs. You make it sound like losing to mediocre USM in 2022. The team is averaging 39 poi...

Regardless our playoff schedule has started. We are pretty much in the must win part of our schedule every week unless other teams collapse
It is. I keep saying off week when I mean long week.

Need to start preparing for Navy some next week. Note that Troy shutout Army last year 19-0. Sumrall knows how to defend option teams. May it continue. I bet we already have. It wouldn't shock me if we've been working Navy things since the week we were prepping for rice. No doubt it will accelerate...

This was a jack and the bean stalk kind of win. We ground their bones tho make our bread. Or put another way, this was a classic nick Saban Alabama crockpotting. Things were just heating up in the first half but by the second everything was falling apart for Charlotte. With a bye hopefully makhi can...

Re: Tulane @ Charlotte (ESPN): First Meeting on Gridiron

The last 3rd down play call was pretty iffy. Why throw short of the sticks if you aren't going for it on 4th?

I agree that we need 7s if we are going to play this deliberately. Every field goal feels like a win for Charlotte's d

Re: Tulane @ Charlotte (ESPN): First Meeting on Gridiron

This is why shortening the game is good for an underdog. We beat their brains in and will probably only be up 3 at half thanks to this debacle of a drive. Holy crap the penalties we have given them
