Interesting study that makes me think of how much luck plays into close wins/ losses. This also applies to fan reactions. We overreact to close wins/ losses because of our darned emotions! It really hurts losing close games but we were very close to an 11-2 season last year. So after reading the article, I have a little more hope for next season.
