Regarding analytics probably his most maligned call this year is going for -- AbsolutVT03 11/04/2021 9:10PM

It was dumb as hell to go for it after the false start. -- OrangeHokieFan 11/04/2021 10:44PM

You're confusing the odds of converting the try with the change in win %. -- AbsolutVT03 11/04/2021 10:47PM

It’s stupid to go against the analytics -- OrangeHokieFan 11/04/2021 11:17PM

This isn't what anaytics is -- Hokie In MD 11/05/2021 09:55AM

Again my main point was that people disagreed with the call prior to the -- AbsolutVT03 11/04/2021 11:20PM

JPr is 22-22 for EXP’s -- OrangeHokieFan 11/05/2021 12:24AM

Except it would no longer be a standard extra point after the penalty. -- AbsolutVT03 11/05/2021 12:49PM

This is incorrect -- Hokie In MD 11/05/2021 09:58AM

No it wasn’t the best decision in terms of winning % -- Planner_Hokie 11/04/2021 10:17PM

Yes it most definitely was. I'm not "being an apologist" whatsoever. It's -- AbsolutVT03 11/04/2021 10:25PM

Just say you don’t understand analytics already ** -- OrangeHokieFan 11/04/2021 11:18PM

How about citing a source instead of making personal attacks? I explained -- AbsolutVT03 11/04/2021 11:24PM

Here ya go -- OrangeHokieFan 11/05/2021 12:21AM

Following up as you seemed to have missed my post below. Please show me -- AbsolutVT03 11/05/2021 4:53PM

Please show me in there where it says our odds of converting the 2 point -- AbsolutVT03 11/05/2021 12:43PM

This has to do with going for two when you score a TD to cut the lead to 8 -- Hokie In MD 11/05/2021 10:02AM

Going for 2 after a 5 yard penalty? -- Planner_Hokie 11/04/2021 10:37PM

No I'm not kidding. I'm simply able to understand analytics. The 5 yard -- AbsolutVT03 11/04/2021 10:53PM

Thanks for providing this analysis. One question… -- Pride_and_Joy 11/05/2021 10:26AM

I don't know if this answers your question but in that specific scenario -- AbsolutVT03 11/05/2021 1:00PM

The WP% Increase -- Hokie In MD 11/05/2021 12:14PM

That makes sense. -- Pride_and_Joy 11/05/2021 12:19PM

For sure the backup QB and the penalty are variables that are difficult to -- AbsolutVT03 11/05/2021 1:16PM

Ok-explain why Fuente apologized for the decision -- Planner_Hokie 11/04/2021 11:05PM

Probably because in hindsight the extra point would have made a difference. -- AbsolutVT03 11/04/2021 11:12PM

My favorite part is how this whole discussion has been about analytics and -- AbsolutVT03 11/04/2021 11:53PM

I think it's reasonable -- Hokie In MD 11/05/2021 10:05AM

4 down decisions -- StautonHokie 11/04/2021 11:01AM
