Happy Thursday oh great and wonderful college football fans. We are in for our best week yet as conference games abound. As any reader knows, I love numbers so let’s show how much better this week’s games are. This season I started a new thing that measures, for lack of a better term, goodness or watchability, or whatever. When teams play within their league (Power 5 vs P5, Group of 5 vs G5, FCS vs FCS), that game is worth 3 points. You may not enjoy watching or even be able to find FCS games to watch, but they are “fair”. Blowouts will happen, upsets will happen, but we expect closer and more entertaining games. When there’s a mismatch there’s a smaller value. Power 5 vs Group of 5 still can be good so they get 1 point. P5 and G5 vs FCS lose points (-3 and -2 respectively), and FCS vs non-D1 loses 1 point. In week 0/1, the average score was 0.549, week 2 climbed slightly to 0.619, and last week jumped to a fairly entertaining 1.406. This week, the 115 games explode to an average of 2.430! This is going to be fun.
…..
Below I list every game and predict the games within the rules of the GCR predictions. Last week, for the FBS (Power 5 and Group of 5) games, the GCR was 58-17 (.773) straight up (just picking the winners), and a more modest 20-15 (.571) for the FCS. That brings the season to 125-35 (.781) for the FBS and 37-30 (.552) for the FCS. Against the spread, the GCR had a rough go, which is not that uncommon early in the season with just a 24-29 (.453) mark bringing the season to 56-40 (.583).
…..
The game tonight is an interesting one when Georgia St (3-0/38) travels to Coastal Carolina (2-1/53). Kicking off at 7:30, the Panthers bring an undefeated record (with a couple of close calls) and an Offensive Efficiency Rating (OER) of 149 (27th in the nation) meaning they score 14.9 points for every 10 points their opponents normally allow. They will be facing a Chanticleer (think teal rooster) Defensive Efficiency Rating (DER) of 184 (26th in the nation) meaning CCAR gives up 10.0 points for every 18.4 their opponents normally score. On the other side, the Conway, SC team will bring an OER of 159 (15th) to face a slightly less than average DER of 98 (141st). I like this game because both teams have been scrappy and only one loss (to UCLA on the road last week) between them, they both are trying to keep pace in the very competitive Sun Belt East race (Marshall and James Madison are both undefeated and App St and Ga Southern are also 2-1). Vegas likes CCAR-7.0, but the GCR is picking the Panthers to win straight up 73% to start the week off with a Vegas upset.
…..
The best early game Saturday kicking off at 12:00 is Florida St (3-0/16) at Clemson (2-1/46). If FSU wins this game, Clemson will essentially be eliminated from playoff contention in September (see next paragraph). If Clemson wins, the hope is still alive especially with a weaker than expected so far SEC. A lot of pressure for the men in Orange. When the Seminoles are moving an OER of 166 (8th) faces a not what we have been used to in recent years Tiger DER of 119 (90th). On the flip side, Clemson’s OER is 178 (4th) against the FSU DER of 140 (58th). Vegas has FSU-2.5 and the GCR agrees 86% and to cover.
…..
To keep the theme alive, Mississippi (3-0/12) travels southwest to Alabama (2-1/43) at 3:30 in what could be another elimination game. The Rebels bring the #2 offense with an OER of 183 against the Tide’s DER of 173 (32nd). When Bama has the ball, they will try to gain ground with an OER of 133 (55th) against a DER of 170 (35th). Vegas is willing to bet on the Crimson Tide -7.0 which seems really high based on the season so far. The GCR has Mississippi winning on the road straight up 79%.
…..
The game of the week kicking off at 7:30 is Ohio St (3-0/5) invading Notre Dame (4-0/2) in a GCR top 5 matchup. This is yet another game with playoff implications despite the calendar. When the Buckeyes travel the field they bring an OER of 156 (19th) vs an Irish DER of 189 (25th). When the Irish are Fightin’ an OER of 160 (14th) hits the Ohio St wall of defense with a DER of 447 (1st). Every number in this paragraph is in the GCR top 25. This is a championship caliber game, or at least it looks like it, in week 4. Absolutely wonderful. Vegas has OHST-3.0 but in the upset of the week, Notre Dame wins 52%.
…..
Here are all the games for this week with the predictions. Thanks for reading and sharing, G
