DukeS Posted Wednesday at 03:16 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 03:16 PM This may not but worth much but here’s some related scores from this season: 8/30 Magnolia 59 - LC 33 8/30 PNG 39 - Klein Oak 17 9/13 Magnolia 60 - Klein Oak 21 Rez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eazy Posted Wednesday at 03:46 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 03:46 PM So, Mag beat LC by 26, but they beat KO by 39. So then that means that LC would beat KO by 13. But, since PNG already beat KO by 22, then PNG will therefore beat LC by 9? Is the math right? I got PNG by 9 then.

But, since PNG already beat KO by 22, then PNG will therefore beat LC by 9? Is the math right? I got PNG by 9 then. There’s no transitive property in football. We can’t predict scores based on comparing who scored what against who. Matchups are what matters. There were a couple years (2014, 2015) where PNG beat a bad Goose Creek Memorial team 47-20 and 42-14. Nederland lost to GCM those years 56-55 and 18-14 (their only district loss in both years). Nederland beat PNG both years, despite PNG beating GCM by 17 and 28 points in those years. The point is, I don’t think we learn much, if anything, by LC losing to Magnolia and then Magnolia beating a team PNG beat. The only thing that matters is what can LC do on defense against PNG that specifically counters what PNG does, what can LC do on offense that PNG will struggle to counter, and how do both teams manage the game (play calling, clock management, etc).

But the remainder of Rez' paragraph is correct. If A > B and B > C, then A > C, except on any given night in high school football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rez Posted Wednesday at 06:46 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 06:46 PM 1 hour ago, Separation Scientist said: I think there is "some". Not a lot, but some. It’s a matter of degree. If Team A beats Team C by 60, and Team B beats Team C by 14, we’ve learned that both Team A and Team B are better than Team C. But I don’t think it tells us much about how Team A will do against Team B. Last year is a good example - PNG beat Nederland by 28. Lake Creek beat Nederland by about 50. If we went only by the scores we’d be tempted to say LC had a better offense and defense than PNG. PNG beat LC by 3. If you won by at least more than two scores, I don’t care about how much more you scored after. A stat I think IS transferable to the next game is something like 3rd and 4th down conversions, 3rd and 4th down stops, time of possession, and number of possessions. But I would want those to be counted over the whole season, not just against a common opponent. The things that lead to touchdowns or prevent opposing touchdowns that you can do consistently against a bunch of opponents get closer to telling us something about what you’ll do with the next opponent. In other words, I think the ability to get three yards when you absolutely need to against everyone you’ve played tells us more about your team than previous point spread.

Has happened many times. smh IMO, when it comes to particular matchups, hold that thought till the week of the game or at least Saturday evening prior to that particular game so that it doesn't get buried.
