Okay, here’s my blog post about the Central Connecticut vs. Fairleigh Dickinson prediction, written in a personal, informal style:
Alright guys, so I spent some time today digging into this Central Connecticut vs. Fairleigh Dickinson game. I wanted to see if I could figure out a likely outcome, you know, for fun. Here’s how I went about it, and what I came up with.
First, I looked up the recent scores. I didn’t go too crazy, just wanted a general sense of how both teams have been playing lately. Just a quick peek at their win-loss records and maybe the scores of their last few games.

Next, I try to do some comparison between two team.

So, after staring at numbers and basically guessing for a while, I finally made my pick. I think Fairleigh Dickinson has many advantage.
