The silly computer doesn't know their QB is on the shelf for 6 - 8 weeks.

There's not much reliability this early in the season. As more data is created from games played, it should balance itself out. If they really are that good, they'll stay high. If not, they'll drop down. You can't really read too much into these numbers until several weeks into the season.

And there's this too. Though that backup sure played well against Mizzou.

Its well know the data is not well connected. It'd about as accurate as a media poll.

I need to get to know it a bit better, but I will check it out again...it has sparked my interest. :D

I think it's very interested that we are already favored in every game for the rest of the year at this very second. Also I think at this second you could make the case that we could be favored in every game until Iowa in 2016.
