When quarterback Lucas Johnson caught the final 2-point conversion pass on a “Philly Special” play, it wasn’t even the most dramatic event of the game, nor would it be the last.

I put together a formula using FEI (Fremeau Efficiency Index), recruiting rankings, returning starters and the concept of “regression to the mean” that the stat brains at the UMGoBlog swear by.
