Pomeroy MU Prediction
« on: December 01, 2006, 01:05:29 PM »
Don't know if anybody has posted this before but Pomeroy has us going 27-3 or 28-2 depending on how you look at, with only an 11% chance of losing to UW.  Man, I can't wait for that game!!!!!

wow.. and the two losses are REALLY close:
first loss predicted is at UConn (67-65).  A DJ three could fix that :)
second loss predicted is at Pitt (70-69).  A lazar alley oop could fix that :)

A perfect home record would be fine with me...I believe the last time we did that was 01-02...DWade's first year (actually playing)...and coincidentally, mine as well

He also gives us a 98% chance of beating Louisville at home and 92% on the road.  ???

Does that mean I can get 49:1 and 11.5:1 odds betting on Louisville.  Ok Pomeroy, here's my dollar.

I didn't realize bar patronization was even an official major at MU let alone eligible for scholarship sponsors.

I was thinking the same thing as I was going through the schedule--how can I get these odds?  

Of course, I would rather have my thumbs cut off, forcing me to hit the space bar with my forefinger every time, than bet against the Warriors.

Obviously I don't put too much stock in these predictions as they are just churned out of one guy's computer but just for the sake of it here are some of his other predictions:

MU   27-3 (13-3)
UW    21-10 (10-6)
UWM   7-22 (5-11)
Pitt   25-5 (12-4)
G-Town   13-16 (5-11)
Louisville   14-17 (5-12)
UConn    26-4 (13-3)
Syracuse   20-10 (8-8)
Villanova   25-5 (13-3)
ND   23-6 (12-4)

I agree, just saying I don't put a lot of stock in what he's saying.  I hope I'm wrong.

It's like any other early season computer rankings like the RPI.  with a limited sample size, it tends to produce some goofy results.  Check back in about a month and i bet its predictions are a lot more reasonable.  regardless, it means nothing...as the saying goes, that's why they play the games.

Clearly, we should be awarded the National Championship right now.  The season is merely a formality.
