The MRI
2026 · Week 11

Week 4 slate, 2020

The slate as it stood before the Sunday refresh, with final scores. 30 games with an FBS team; the model’s line and win chance for each were set before kickoff.

Pre is the model’s win chance before kickoff. Model is the favourite and the margin the ratings predict, reconstructed walk-forward from ratings as they stood that week - never from anything the model learned afterward.
