Dunno if ya have it, but I do recall that going against teams on the road with new head coaches has been pretty profitable over the years. If ya have the stats, college or NFL, do ya mind throwin' up here so I can take a looksie. Are there not 12 new head coaches in the NFL....
IE
- Thread starter Neemer
- Start date
I sorta don't like to throw out numbers as a whole anymore w/ so many different outs...my records could be misinforming when comparing to others since a 10-17 record w/ me might be a 10-14-3 or something like that w/ a pool to look at when its so shallow a number....but i will say for the NFL new head coaches and new co-ordinators the first 4 weeks or so as favs would be a strong indication to look the other way... in regards to NCAA "virgin division one coaches" also might be a worth to look to go against in the first couple of games if they are favs...especially road favs.(a couple of games that kinda stand out for this are Miami's visit to PennSt by Corker and Toledo's visit to Temple w/ Amstultz).
sometimes it is not just the first year head coach in the NFL which is a go-against as favs early in the season but first year coordinators and coaching philioshipies(sp) if there has been a change....
change can be good but it also can be frustrating early.....
