SB Leading Indicator Challenge
An Update As We Enter The Final Days of #SBLIndicators
For the original challenge — start reading here:
We saw a shift in submissions in the past few days. While early entries nearly excluded the Falcons, the last 48 hours has seen them picked more frequently than the Patriots. Paddi Cooper thinks the game will be determined by 3rd down efficiency. Matthew Miller has his eye on the injury bug. John (Jack) Byrnes bucked the recent trend and picked NE because of their pass defense.
We have had a handful of predictions based more event-based streaks and at least one person picked the Cowboys! There are others still waiting for statistical inspiration (get your pick in! George Earl) and we are still waiting for Zack Vella to write an update on his early modeled prediction — you can read that here:
Where ever you stand — be sure to submit your entry soon. Remember to use #SBLIndicators on Twitter. Be sure to reply on our Facebook page for those who submit there (it is really difficult to track down comments to everyone’s shares!). Or make it easy and just comment below (or on the original article).
Look for a few more articles on Leading Indicators and the History of Sports, Statistics, and Gambling in the days to come. Thanks for reading! And here’s hoping that this Superbowl is as exciting as some of the earlier playoff games!
