Guys, you’re still trying to replace Jensen. I told you we can’t do it, and we can’t do it. Now, what we might be able to do is re-create him. Re-create him in the aggregate.
The KEN is a proprietary model that utilizes yards per play information adjusted by and to opponent strength. Essentially the theory is yards is highly correlated with points. Pre-Season projections fall off 1/8th for every FBS game (meaning by 8 FBS games only in season data is used).
The KEN does not adjust for injuries, weather, or turnovers. Each person should factor these in when making their picks.
LSU is a great example. They remain #1 in my power rankings (above Alabama) because despite losing by 18, they outgained Alabama by 170 yards.

Been following your projections for a pick’em I’m in. Made some money along the way. Curious what stats or metrics your model weighs most heavily that are pushing it toward so many underdogs winning outright this week? Wake, Miss St, Florida, Arizona, and UTSA specifically?

RA & Texas A&M Athletics:
Blacking out this weekend.
Weekend plans? Made. Thursday, we pack Reed for a big time P6 matchup vs OK ST. Friday, we pack Reed again to watch the National Champion Volleyball team take on LSU. Saturday, the Ags look to make their record 3-0 in blackout games under Elko. WEAR BLACK. BE LOUD. BE THERE.
