Method
- Expected is an offense and a defense a team, fit over every 2026 game between two teams in the table with the game being read left out, plus 1.8 for the home team (the edge the fit finds once strength is in), nothing at a neutral site.
- Each expected number is then fit to the season’s games: a game bears out about 66% of the difference the model predicts.
- Sacramento State, Lindenwood have no other game in the table, so those games have no expected number and sit out the second figure.
- Who played is read from the schools’ box scores’ participation lists for 9 of these 10 games; in the other game a player is counted as in it when the box score has a stat for him.
- 15 games in 2024 and 2025 are neither with Braydon Bennett nor since Braydon Bennett’s last game: Braydon Bennett had no game for the team those seasons, and sit out.
