Mathematics and Statistics Colloquium Series #2: Modeling College Football Overtime

Mathematics and Statistics Colloquium Series #2

Department of Mathematics and Statistics Colloquium Series #2 presents Modeling College Football Overtime by Dr. Brian Haile. (includes Q&A session refreshments provided)

Abstract: In this talk we analyze the NCAA football overtime rules by considering the expected length of overtime games and the impact of the coin toss in the original system, the system used through the 2018 season, and perhaps something will be said about the current system.
