College Football Prediction Results for Week 14 2019 FBS Season

College Football Prediction Results for Week 14 2019 FBS Season

We finished Week 14 of the 2019 FBS college football season:
44-20 in calling the winner
33-31 against the spread, and
36-28 against the over/under.


Our cumulative FBS prognostication record for 2019 after Week 14 stands at:
629-206 in calling the winner (75%)
419-401-15 against the spread, and
412-401-11 against the over/under ("total").


If possible, we compete against the quoted opening odds ("the line", "the spread") as available online (e.g. Vegas Insider, OddsShark, Sportsline, 5Dimes, CFPT), and which can vary, so we have no fixed system of which portals we use. We do our predictions for fun and we are not affiliated with any service or institution. However, if online services differ as to the opening line, we pick the "half odds" so as to avoid ties.

Caveat Emptor! Please do not use our predictions for wagering. We disclaim any and all liability for anyone's use of our materials and prognostications, nor do we make any warranties as to accuracy. Our prognostication hobby helps us to keep track of news and sports all over America. We are not in this for the money. May the best team win.

Our prognostications here are based on our own rankings of all FBS football teams, as made after the 13th week of play. Our ranking for each team is given in parentheses next to the team name.


We repeat: We compete against the opening line, if possible, not the updated line. If services differ as to the opening line, we pick the "half odds" so as to avoid ties of our predictions with the spread. This can be a more updated line.

For Week 14 of the 2019 FBS college football season we are thus far:

11-8 against the spread, and

The Thundering Herd were favored over the Golden Panthers by 8 points.
The over/under (predicted total score) was 51.5 points.
Our Call: 24-23 for Florida International. Former Miami football head coach Butch Davis, now the head coach at FIU, pulled off a stunner last weekend with a 30-24 upset against the Hurricanes, who were a 3-TD favorite.

For Week 14 of the 2019 FBS college football season we are thus far:
13-7 in calling the winner

Clemson (5) at South Carolina (34)
The Tigers were favored over the Gamecocks by 26 points.
The over/under (predicted total score) was 49.5 points.
Our Call: 38-17 for Clemson. Last season Clemson prevailed 56-35 over the Gamecocks, who in that same season lost early to Georgia 41-17. This year South Carolina upset Georgia in 2 overtimes 20-17, so it is not as if the Dawgs did not have plenty of chances to win that game this year. That's a 27-point turnaround, or a 24-point turnaround in regulation time. Hence, a Gamecocks win here is not impossible, but unlikely, as our stats favor Clemson by 24, minus the South Carolina home field advantage, which Kambour calculates as 1.9874 points. In any case, if they can beat Georgia, why not also Clemson? Unlikely.
Result: Clemson won 38-3.
For Week 14 of the 2019 FBS college football season we are thus far:
14-7 in calling the winner
12-9 against the spread, and
12-9 against the over/under.

For Week 14 of the 2019 FBS college football season we are thus far:
17-9 in calling the winner
13-13 against the spread, and
14-12 against the over/under.


Ohio State (1) at Michigan (6)
The Buckeyes were favored over the Wolverines by 8.5 points.
The over/under (predicted total score) was 55.5 points.
Our Call: 27-26 for Michigan. A matchup of two tradition-rich football schools, whose undergraduate enrollments both rank in the top 7 nationally. Ohio State clearly has one of the best teams ever. The most optimal result for Michigan that our stats would allow, pushing everything to the limit, and taking a home field advantage in the Big House that Kambour this season calculates as 7.9935 points, would be a 3-point loss. However, given a Michigan grad in the family (where the Nebraska and Stanford grad, yours truly, has pretty much thrown in the towel for this 2019 season for those two teams) and hoping for a small miracle, we go with the Blue for a big upset win by a point. If we were to stay neutral, mind you, we would favor Ohio State by 9 points. Just sayin'. Hoping for a great game and good media coverage of the marvelous pageantry that attaches to this college football game in particular (and is often neglected by the media and by sponsors and advertisers), and also hoping for some coverage of the great marching bands of both schools (thank you for the big band link, relatives in Tennessee!), may the best team win.
Result: Ohio State prevailed over Michigan 56-27.
For Week 14 of the 2019 FBS college football season we are thus far:
17-10 in calling the winner
13-14 against the spread, and
14-13 against the over/under.

The over/under (predicted total score) was 65 points.
Our Call: 34-24 for Wake Forest.
Result: Syracuse won in overtime 39-30, scoring a defensive touchdown in overtime to add to an overtime field goal.
For Week 14 of the 2019 FBS college football season we are thus far:
17-11 in calling the winner
13-15 against the spread, and
14-14 against the over/under.

Our Call: 34-24 for Baylor. It has been a "promising for the future" season for the Jayhawks with "Miles to Go". Baylor has had a top year and would be undefeated except for an epic 25-point comeback win by Oklahoma, the largest comeback in Sooner history. Our stats are in line with the line of 14 points, so do we go over or under? Let's "Go with Miles" in "Miles to Go".
Result: Baylor routed Kansas 61-6.

Alabama (4) at Auburn (13)
The Crimson Tide were favored over the Tigers by 3.5 points.
The over/under (predicted total score) was 49.5 points.
Our Call: 17-13 for Alabama. Due to a season-ending injury to Crimson Tide starting QB Tua Tagovailoa in the game against Mississippi State, backup QB Mac Jones ran the 'Bama offense well against Western Carolina last weekend, but playing against the Auburn defense will be a different matter, as no team has scored more than 24 points against Auburn this season. However, in its three losses, the Auburn offense scored only 13, 20 and 14 points against Florida, LSU and Georgia respectively. Hence even a diminished Alabama offense, should score enough points to vanquish the offensively weak Tigers.
Result: Auburn edged Alabama 48-45.
For Week 14 of the 2019 FBS college football season we are thus far:
29-17 in calling the winner
22-24 against the spread, and

    Both book volumes contain the following basic book description:
    "Alice Cunningham Fletcher observed in her 1902 publication in the American Anthropologist
    that there is ample evidence that some ancient cultures in Native America, e.g. the Pawnee in Nebraska,
    geographically located their villages according to patterns seen in stars of the heavens.
    See Alice C. Fletcher, Star Cult Among the Pawnee--A Preliminary Report,
    American Anthropologist, 4, 730-736, 1902.
    Ralph N. Buckstaff wrote:
    "These Indians recognized the constellations as we do, also the important stars,
    drawing them according to their magnitude.
    The groups were placed with a great deal of thought and care and show long study.
    ... They were keen observers....
    The Pawnee Indians must have had a knowledge of astronomy comparable to that of the early white men."
    See Ralph N. Buckstaff, Stars and Constellations of a Pawnee Sky Map,
    American Anthropologist, Vol. 29, Nr. 2, April-June 1927, pp. 279-285, 1927.
    In our book, we take these observations one level further
    and show that megalithic sites and petroglyphic rock carving and pictographic rock art in Native America,
    together with mounds and earthworks, were made to represent territorial geographic landmarks
    placed according to the stars of the sky using the ready map of the starry sky
    in the hermetic tradition, "as above, so below".
    That mirror image of the heavens on terrestrial land is the "Sky Earth" of Native America,
    whose "rock stars" are the real stars of the heavens, "immortalized" by rock art petroglyphs, pictographs,
    cave paintings, earthworks and mounds of various kinds (stone, earth, shells) on our Earth.
    These landmarks were placed systematically
    in North America, Central America (Meso-America) and South America
    and can to a large degree be reconstructed as the Sky Earth of Native America."
