CCG Race Week 8 Update: BYU surges, only 4 teams with decent chances
What a win by BYU. Being OOC, the game didn't directly affect CCG odds, but the impressive performance has boosted the computers' opinion of BYU, and that shows up in the odds. BYU moved up 10 points to 57.4%, a very large movement for a team playing an OOC game this late. TTU increased 4 points to 70.1%, while Utah fell 9 points to 44.9%. Houston rose 3 points to 19.6%.
Nothing's over, but for the first time this season we can look at the numbers and say that it would be a surprise if anyone outside the top 4 got in to the CCG. Houston @ Utah this week is huge for the CCG odds:
- If Utah wins, the odds are Utah 59%, Houston 14%
- If Houston wins, the odds are Utah 18%, Houston 48%
