2011-2012 NCAA FBS Bowl Schedule

ESPN has posted the 2011-12 bowl schedule. Last year the NCAA FBS production model went 24-11 for the bowl season. I plan to continue working on the production model and see if I can make it more accurate. Over the next few months I hope to have some time to look this over some more. I have been working on this model lately for a paper I am presenting at the end of the month. I am using three years of data, as opposed to only the current season, as I did for the model results presented in this blog.

Oh, here is the schedule in case the link goes dead.
