Simulating Cincinnati vs. USF

[Gat-Rat Bull]

This guy used a simulation site that has this Saturday's game scenarios all over the place. I have no opinion on it other than thinking it was an interesting way of looking at both teams against each other. Pick your prediction from the list...

None of these are correct, Cincy will hang near 50 points on USF Defense

I'm with the above poster, none of these options have the auto distruct putton attached. USF self distruct sequence beginning in 9, 8, 7, ....

Did the guys practice in a freezer? That's what needs to be simulated. Can't imagine practicing here in 85° weather, going up there and playing in 35° weather. Coming back to Tampa, practicing in temps in the mid 70's and then back to Philly and 30's.

I always laugh at weather and southern teams excuse. Trust me just because one lives up north does not mean they are used to it. Especially early in the season. Cincy players will not be happy playing in the cold either.

Precisely.  Some of Cincy's players are from southern states meaning they aren't used to it either.

I was wishing I had worn a coat at the UMass game, and I had a long sleeve shirt and a jersey on.

I came prepared for that game as I knew the wind would pick up. But it was not too bad. Still thinking over Temple. If we get rolled against Cincy doubtful that I go. But the weather there next Saturday will not be as bad as Cincy tomorrow.

Kind of glad I got another commitment on Saturday night.  Will DVR and watch later...or maybe not depending on outcome.

Simulations are great fun and a helpful learning tool, but are only as good as their input. The only known input for USF would put win scenarios in the 3-sigma range. I hope a newly-energized team shows up.
