We may not have G-Day QBR to chew on this year, but Mickey’s crack statisticians have been busy recalculating the Football Power Index.
Back in February, Georgia sat in tenth place, one spot ahead of Florida and behind Texas and Texas A&M.
FPI paints a very different picture now (h/t). The Dawgs sit fifth overall and second in the conference, behind ‘Bama. Both Texas schools are outside the top ten… and Florida has dropped another spot, to twelfth.
Per Kipp Adams, here’s where Georgia’s percentage chances to win lie in the 2020 regular season:
- Virginia: 95.3
- ETSU: 99.9
- Alabama: 27.5
- Louisiana-Monroe: 99.2
- Vanderbilt: 98.3
- Auburn: 66.4
- Missouri: 90.2
- Florida: 62.7
- South Carolina: 85.2
- Tennessee: 91.2
- Kentucky: 82.6
- Georgia Tech: 94.2
A pretty lopsided schedule, for the most part. I guess ESPN’s computers aren’t all that swayed by all the pundits’ “but muh spring practice” wisdom.
