Re: Scoring Predictions Anyone?

The scores in this thread are grossly too high (for the most part). This is no different than any other year. We all are way too optimistic on the average score. The average winning score during qualifying in week 1 will be around 20 - 24 points.

This year's game is like 2005 in that the team who reverts to defense will lose the majority of the time. The offensive teams will counter defense with laps and the defensive teams will not be able to catch up.

Time will tell, but I just don't see how an overall defensive strategy can prevail in this year's game.
