Way of predicting season

I saw this on another board last year. Im pretty sure it wasnt this one, if it is then i apologize for repeating.

How it works is you put how confident you are in each game by the game.. Example:

Nevada - 1.0

Texas - 0.5

That means you are sure we will beat nevada but 50/50 on texas

You go through and do this for every game. If you think we can win it 7 out of 10 times put .7

Once you are done, add them all up and divide by the number of games. So divide by 12 this year.

Once all this is done, the number you get is the number of wins you think the team will win this year.

 
Nevada- 1.0

Wake Forest- .8

USC-.6

Ball St- 1.0

Iowa St- .9

Missouri- .7

Okla. St.- .9

Texas AM- .9

Texas- .5

Kansas- .9

Kansas St- 1.0

Colorado- 1.0

Total- 10.2 / 12 = .85

So i dont get how many games its saying we will win? Does it mean 8.5? If so that does seem very accurate towards my predictions :hmmph

 
Nevada- 1.0

Wake Forest- 1.0

USC- 1.0

Ball St- 1.0

Iowa St- 1.0

Missouri- 1.0

Okla. St.- 1.0

Texas AM- .1.0

Texas- 1.0

Kansas- 1.0

Kansas St- 1.0

Colorado- 1.0

12/12=1

We are only supposed to win 1 game? Disappointing....

:yeah

now that ive come back to reality im still stickin with my 10-2 record, with losses @Texas and @ Mizzou.

 
Once you are done, add them all up and divide by the number of games. So divide by 12 this year.

Once all this is done, the number you get is the number of wins you think the team will win this year.
That would get you the winning percentage.

 
Ok, I have us winning 10.5 games for a .875 winning percentage. I'm most worried about USC and Texas. I think we'll handle Missouri.

 
as much as i hate to say this, we shouldn't look past the Kansas game....we played horrible against them in Lincoln last year, who knows what happens in Lawrence.

 
You're right, the team shouldn't look past Kansas. I'm sure the coaches won't let that happen after the last two years...

 
I think we'll handle Missouri.
i like the enthusiasm. and i think we should always handle misery, but we are on a 2 game skid in Columbia. we lost there in 03 by a score of 24-41, and then we repeated that score in 05. Of course that was when they had superman Brad Smith. They say chase daniel is supposed to be real good, even though he eats his own boogers. We will see. i hope we break that losing streak.

uh, no. 1 = 100% meaning we will all games. Percentages, son!

 
Nevada- 1.0

Wake Forest- .6

USC-.2

Iowa St- 1.0

Missouri- .6

Okla. St.- .9

Texas AM- .7

Texas- .4

Kansas- .9

Kansas St- 1.0

Colorado- 1.0

I'm .775 or 77.5% confident about the season is what this thing says I guess.
