Any better than my last one?Ok, here are 12 statistical predictions I'm making for the 2011 season. The only thing is that I'm only giving you the stat value, and not the stat name.
Let's see who can guess the most. A prize for the first person to guess them all correctly.
In 2011, the Alabama Crimson Tide will amass the following (random, sort of) stats:
12 (wins)
30.2 (offensive points/game)
5.1 (offensive rushing yards/carry)
206.27 (offensive rushing yards/game)
218.78 (offensive passing yards/game)
19 (offensive passing td's)
10 (offensive interceptions thrown)
25 (offensive rushing td's)
2.48 (defensive rushing ypc)
252.67 (defensive yard/game allowed)
8.7 (deffensive points/game)
6 (defensive td's)
I think the 2.48 could possibly be sacks per game, because the 19 and 25 are probably dependent on each other, as in, if you miss one, you miss the other because we know that one of them has to be right.JohnnyB, we had the same list, except the last item. I assume you got that one right, and we both got one other wrong...
I think the wrong one almost has to be 19, 10, or 25. I'll go with 10, and that should be fumbles or sacks...
Haha darn, you got me with the total defensive interceptions. I was doin calculations to see if 19 passing TD's and 25 rushing TD's would be close to 30 pts a game and if you add in extra points and an average of 1.5 field goals a game, its almost dead on!Okay, times up.
In 2011, the Alabama Crimson Tide will amass the following (random, sort of) stats:
12 (Regular Season Wins)
30.2 (Average Points per Game)
5.1 (Average Yards per Rush)
206.27 (Average Yards per Game Rushing)
218.78 (Average Yards per Game Passing)
19 (Passing TD's)
10 (Total Interceptions Thrown)
25 (Total Interceptions Taken Away)
2.48 (Defense Yards per Rush Allowed)
252.67 (Total Defense)
8.7 (Defensive Points Allowed per Game)
6 (Touchdowns scored by Defense/Special Teams)
In case you haven't guessed, I'm pretty optimistic about this year's team.
Okay, times up.
In 2011, the Alabama Crimson Tide will amass the following (random, sort of) stats:
12 (Regular Season Wins) --- Off by 1, only 11 in the regular season but 12 total!
30.2 (Average Points per Game) --- We actually averaged 34.8 points per game.
5.1 (Average Yards per Rush) --- We averaged 5.49 yards per rush - even better than I predicted but not too far off.
206.27 (Average Yards per Game Rushing) --- We averaged 214.46 yards rushing - pretty close.
218.78 (Average Yards per Game Passing) --- We averaged 215.2 yards passing - very close.
19 (Passing TD's) --- We only had 16 Passing TDs.
10 (Total Interceptions Thrown) --- We only threw 8 INTs on the year.
25 (Total Interceptions Taken Away) --- I could be wrong but I think I meant to put "Total Turnovers Taken Away", of which we ended up with only 20.
2.48 (Defense Yards per Rush Allowed) --- We gave up 2.43 yards per rush on the year - extremely close.
252.67 (Total Defense) --- We blew this away, only giving up 183.6 yards per game.
8.7 (Defensive Points Allowed per Game) --- We only gave up 8.2 points per game - very close.
6 (Touchdowns scored by Defense/Special Teams) --- Only 4 here - oh, well.
In case you haven't guessed, I'm pretty optimistic about this year's team.
