I get it. Touchy Tommy could definitely molest us for 200 yards passing and 100 yards rushing.

But even with our gaping defensive issues aside +142 is free money.

The thing about Montana State: they are good. Almost as good as the Bison, but not quite. Their greatness is amplified by their weaker schedule, but they are great, just not as great as NDSU

During the season both offensively and defensively every team develops a unique statistical profile. These profiles can be used to develop reliable predictors and monitors.


OFFENSIVELY:

For game monitors

Keep this in mind: 1.14

=Total game yards gained Cats/total game yards gained BISON

During the game, As that ratio approaches 1.14 the chances of a BISON victory dim. You are in the red zone at 1.07.

This is certainly no gambling advice and/or encouragement to gamble, but you can use this ratio for in-game monitoring. It’s a monitor not a predictor

The defensive ratio in a game situation is just the reciprocal. Based on season performance The number is .9327

Simply put

The BISON can win this one even on the short end of the statistics because The BISON are a more efficient football team

Might as well take the points too

Pretty sure I moved that line all by myself.

Plans are set. Family from Tennessee rolling in for the big game. Tailgate calling for Prime SRF fillets with a master bbq chief at my side. Grill carrots, onion with au gratin potatoes. Looking forward to it all. Kari down at the liquor store will set me up with the wine. Vanilla ice cream for dessert unless you would rather have a popsicle. We are getting deluxe cashews too!

Hopefully the MWC news won’t serve as a psychological drag on The Bison. I hope it inspires them to the win.

South Dakota roads are good but poor driving conditions are moving in from the west.
