I would not be against an absolute mess of a game with 7 turnovers and a score of 16-13.
The weather should even out the ST and QB disparities (at least when it comes to the passing game).
Clever scheme and good blocking might just win the day.

In most cases but Josh Allen is a tank. He could probably just run the ball 30 times and win. The 49ers have to hope a crazy weather game sends him back into trying to do too much superman mode, instead of just superman mode. Considering the circumstances I really think the only way the 49ers can win this game is if it is wild. They aren't beating the Bills in Buffalo in December, coming off a bye, with half their roster injured without some sort of insanity. They could use some combination of how the Raiders lost the game yesterday plus how Georgia tech blew a 14 point lead against Georgia with 5 mins to go.
When I saw Georgia was about to lose their third game and be on the cusp of elimination from the CFB playoffs I rushed to predyx and put a bunch of sats down on no and then they scored 2 touchdowns in 3 minutes and won in the 8th OT. Second longest OT game in CFB history. Go figure. They will probably win the SEC Championship now and run the table in the playoffs. Haha

How can they go into so many OT's? That's nuts.

I really like the structure of CFB OT. In the first OT period each team gets the ball on the 25 yard line for a chance to score a TD. If it is still tied after the first two overtime periods they go to alternating 2 point conversions to determine the game and play until one team makes it and the other misses.
It's really exciting.

Interesting. I don't thing that's how it was the last time I followed college football.

Next week I will do a post comparing OT rules in different sports and leagues and maybe we can add that to next week's agenda.
After our discussion on the PI on underthrown balls I think another good discussion would be rules we hate. I know early in meta takeover I posted about rules stackers wanted changed but hasn't been discussed in awhile.

There are so many rules that bother me. That could be fuel for many segments.
