Projected score and win chance for any two teams, from this season's results only.

About this page

Any two teams, played out

The matchup generator projects a game between any two FBS or FCS teams, real or imagined. Pick two teams and a site, and it gives a projected score, a win chance for each side and a call on how the game is most likely to go.

How the prediction works

The projection starts from the gap in Power between the two teams, adds home field when one side is at home and turns that gap into a win chance and a likely score. Only this season's games are used: no betting lines, polls or preseason ratings.

What else you will find

Below the call, the page compares the two teams unit by unit: which side is better on offense, defense and in the trenches, the key player matchups, how they score by quarter, any past meetings and common opponents, and each team's recent form.
