My preseason college football preview series marches on with a preview of the races in the Group of Five conference. I also answer the question: "How accurate are these odds likely to be?"
Spoiler alert: they are very accurate.
What does that actually mean?
It means that when I calculate that a team has a 10% chance to make their conference title game, within the group of teams with similar odds, about one in 10 of them will actually make their conference title game. It sounds simple, but there are an awful lot of odds thrown out there in the preseason that are simply wrong. My are not.
Anyway, check it out and enjoy!
