It is going to be embarrassing walking around work in this condition for the next few weeks.
 
While there are probabilities, there are also standard deviations around those probabilities, which differ for every team. So a Monte Carlo simulation can be used to evaluate the overall expected results. And with today's computers, would take only a minute to run once all the inputs are in.

I know KSU has a tough row to hoe from here on out, but I have a hard time believing they go 2-9.
 
Bill Self will be smirking at the end of February.....until I see something else, that is what you have to bet on....if you bet money.
 
If we can get the next 4 games I'll start entertaining the idea we could win the conference.
