ESPN bowl projections affirm optimism

Submitted by OHbornUMfan on

SIAP - a cursory search says it hasn't been.

ESPN has a projection/simulator that provides more reason for optimism.  Just adjust the stats as you think they might end up, and see what comes out!  Michigan wins every time for me (I have us not turning the ball over much, which is extraordinarily likely, I know).

Hours of fun.

I haven't had the courage to mess around with fumbles yet; I've been putting Denard around 200 passing and 80 rushing, with Vincent chipping in about 50 and getting happy results. 

Having read many of BlueSeoul's game notes, I feel that MSU might chip in enough unforced errors to counterbalance the unforced errors that our offense makes.

I put in my stats, clicked 'Simulate', and sat back with a blueberry muffin to see the results. It told me that my scenario had a 0.0% chance of occurring. Thing must be broken — I don't see why Denard couldn't get 374 rushing yards.
