i think this is the right take on postgame win expectancy - illiniranger January 20, 2026, 12:41:44
- The 10-0 halftime lead seemed bigger, so credit to Miami for battling hard, especially... - RSMBob January 20, 2026, 15:36:28

  - Assume this is all done in a massive spreadsheet so I can't imagine it's a computational issue - ATL January 20, 2026, 9:12:31
    - It’s probably as simple as taking the EPA of all plays, then seeing where the winner lands on that - illiniranger January 20, 2026, 9:45:46

- Yep. Also the 16-0 aspect makes it so much worse. - illini January 19, 2026, 22:28:12
  - I’d be interested to know how many minutes they trailed all season. It was basically wire to wire - meanjeans January 19, 2026, 22:31:19
    - Al I’m looking this up - Mrap24 January 19, 2026, 22:40:11

        Oh they trailed the first 4 min of the second half agains tOSU * - meanjeans January 19, 2026, 22:46:44
        
        And just to state the obvious, they won the freaking CFP without ever trailing in it * - meanjeans January 19, 2026, 23:00:05
    - Ok I did the math. Might not be exactly right but I think the trailed a total of 45 min all season - meanjeans January 19, 2026, 22:39:21

- If you need to take comfort in something, think of how miserable Purdue fans must be right now - meanjeans January 19, 2026, 22:33:38
  - Agree, being in the same state takes it to another level. Imagine if Northwestern was doing this.* - Toonces January 20, 2026, 2:54:09
3 straight champs from the B1G. 3 different teams* - snipes824 January 19, 2026, 22:23:40
