Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 4866511, member: 1969"] The numbers make sense. The game was close to a pick'em at home, and one team beating the expectation by a lot will move things a lot when only 7 games are played. As an equivalent, by my rough calculation, as of now KP views this type of victory similar to us beating Virginia on the road by about 10 points. LSU is now down to #91, so perhaps they maintain this pace so our margin over them keeps that same relevancy. We beat them by 23 so about 23 points over expectation. 23 divided by 7 games is approximately 3. #126 in the country has an AdjEM right now of +3.7... add 3.0 to that and you get close to the +6.7 that Syracuse is currently at, which allowed them to jump to #100 this morning.
