32.7% ???


Oct 16, 2014, 9:31 AM

only a 32.7% chance to win out? That's weak! Is this based on D Watson being injured? I think we have at least an 85% chance. I trust my Tigers to continue to play lights out, especially the defense!!

What do you think our average chance of winning would be?


Oct 16, 2014, 9:37 AM

For example, what percentage would you put on the BC game? To say we have an 85% chance to win all of our remaining games would mean that on average we have about a 97% chance to win each of the remaining games taken separately.

They even break it down by game

I think ESPN's numbers are about right, if not a bit generous for @ GT if we don't have Watson:

Win % by game:

BC 77.1%
Syracuse: 91.1%
@ Wake Forest: 95.1%
@ Georgia Tech: 70.7%
Georgia State: 99.7%
South Carolina: 70.2%

its based on simple statistics, if each game is about a 75% chance of winning then that ends up being like a 30% of winning all of them. its .75*.75*.75... etc

Since they didn't base it off the BC game then this % is obviously based off

ESPiN's contract with the SEC.
