If you read my post, you'd know I already conceded that we weren't 20-point favorites in those games. I am less struck by an arbitrary favorite margin you choose to buttress your hot take than the fact we obviously looked incredibly bad in those first two games -- losing by 15 and needing three OTs to beat a typically mediocre Pepperdine team -- and came back to do ok that year.
Despite your statistical bent, you're obviously unfazed by incredible small sample sizes, and very impressed by the acumen of bookies two games or three games into a season.
