IMO this is the one sport where looking at the previous matchup between 2 teams gives you a fantastic indicator of what's gonna happen in a game
example of what I'm talking about
MSU/LSU 2010 in LSU - 22 Point Win
MSU/LSU 2011 in MSU - 13 point Win
FSU/OU 2010 In OU - 30 Point win
FSU/OU 2011 In FSU - 13 Point Win
Boise/Toledo 2010 in Boise - 33 point win
Boise/Toledo 2011 in Toledo - 25 Point win
Tulsa/OSU in 2010 In OSU - huge win
Tulsa/OSU in 2011 In Tulsa - huge win
Arizona/Stanford in 2010 @ Stanford - 25 pt win
Arizona/Stanford in 2011 @ Arizona - 27 point win
Arizona/OSU in 2010 Bowl game - 26 point win
Arizona/OSU at OSU in 2011 - 23 point win
it's pretty incredible how close these matchups are
