Punting is a turnover 100% of the time. Only difference is the field position. Got bailed out last weekend on a strip sack in your redzone, and decided to make the same mistake this week

If you don’t get it, they’re not kicking a FG so what’s the difference between a 35 and 70-yard TD drive? In addition to having more time on the clock if they do score

wRC+ > 100 and wOBA > .330 at every stop along the way. All of which happened before turning 22

Similar situation yesterday in the WVU game, when RR decided to punt it away instead of go. Rather than looking at it like you’re giving away points with a failure, you should be looking for a net positive of points over the preceding defensive and offensive possession.

Both the @NextGenStats model and ESPN Analytics model strongly recommended that Detroit GO on 4th and 1 from their own 24. The key here is the time on the clock. Lions are extremely likely to get another possession with over 4 minutes left on the clock.

Win Prob of the 4th down decision yesterday (model disregards team specifics stats) WVU up 4, 4th and 1 at the -41, 6 min Go - 73.5% WP (84.5% if converted, 52.4% if failed) Punt - 71.3% Actual - Punt to TCU 10, TCU ran 17 plays over 5+ min

Although it didn’t seem like the best decision in the moment, it turns out it was the best decision to attempt the 58-yarder. Win Prob according to my model FG - 14% WP Go - 13.2% Punt - 10.7%

From 77% to 4% - WVU Baseball Data Science Intern Connor Dague dug into 6 years of Statcast data on 59 MLB catchers to show how the one-knee stance is reshaping framing, health and athleticism behind the plate. Read it here:

Where do teams have success when it comes to running the ball. Outside vs Inside the tackles.

Not sure I understand the argument that @EJManuel3 made earlier about why NW should “take the points” and make it 15-14. IU scored a FG and NW still needs a TD. IU scores a TD and NW needs a TD and a 2 pt from the 3.

Football guys love the idea of just giving your team a chance to MAYBE tie it late in the game. What difference does it make if NW loses by 6, or misses the 2 pt conversion w no time left to lose by 1

What is the correlation of FBS players, over the last 3 years, who either transfer up a level, or to a different P4 team. Using efficiency metrics, it's easy to see what aspects of a player's game translates at a new level.
