Georgia Tech What-If Tournament Results

The simulated data has been tabulated. The teams have fought their epic duals of statistical analysis. Here are the results:

Astonishingly, A.J. Suggs is a superb playoff quarterback. He took his 12th seeded 2002 team straight through the tourney like a hot knife through butter. The 2002 squad knocked off two teams quarterbacked by Reggie Ball, one by Josh Nesbitt, and one by George Godsey. The 2002 squad's defeat of Paul Johnson's 2008 team was by far the biggest upset of the tournament. We all knew the 2006 squad was terrible at closing out games. Any thoughts on the tournament? Who do you think is the best Georgia Tech team you've ever seen play? Personally, I think the best GT performances I've ever seen were the 2006 victories over Maryland, Miami, and VT.

man, you guys are like the kings of offbeat statistical wizardry but this one tops them all. Or at least most. I’m so stealing it.

I liked it too

I wish it went back to 1990 and I’m not real sure what the whatif website calculates ‘cause I didn’t look into it. I just went with the flow.

I'm about to write you a reality check. Or would you prefer the cold, hard cash of truth?

Ugh

That 2006 team broke my heart on so many levels. Out of these listed, I think I have to go with the 2008 squad just for the pure domination that this team imposed on teams at times. Sometimes it was a whole game like with Miami, sometimes it was for part of a game, like the second half over ugag. Really, that second half really impressed me the most though. The complete turn-around just proved that things were looking up and maybe we could finally get over the hump.
