It’s that time of the week again, time to share the latest projections from The Power Rank.
For those that don’t know, The Power Rank is the creation of analytics expert Ed Feng.
Feng’s metrics have accurately predicted the winners of college football games from the 2015 season to the 2017 season 73.7 percent of the time — with an overall record of 1679-598. That number is even more impressive when you factor in that The Power Rank does not pick FBS games against FCS competition.
The Power Rank had another accurate week of projections for Week 10 as the system went 5-1 picking SEC games.
Here is how The Power Rank predicts the Week 11 action to play out in the SEC:
- Alabama is projected to beat LSU by 9.4 points in Tuscaloosa. The Tigers have a 24 percent chance of winning this matchup.
- South Carolina is projected to beat Appy State by 1.5 points in Columbia. The Gamecocks have a 55 percent chance of winning this matchup.
