Returning production
| Ohio State | Texas | |
|---|---|---|
| Overall | 68% | 72% |
| Passing | 94% | 85% |
| Rushing | 55% | 126%* |
| Receiving | 50% | 55% |
* Outside 0โ100% on purpose โ production is PPA-weighted, so a departing player who cost his team yards pushes the share above 100 and a returning group with negative combined output shows below zero.
The read
- A total of 46.5 sits on the low side of real college football scores (the median FBS game lands on 54). That places the number; it does not predict the result โ overs land almost exactly 50% against closing totals.
- SP+ and the market differ by 5.6 points โ the market rates the home side higher. Worth knowing, but not a signal: we backtested betting that disagreement and it went 49.8% against the spread, versus the 52.4% needed to break even.
