per RandBall:
Former Gophers football coach Glen Mason was fond of saying there are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics.
Mason, now a Big Ten Network analyst, would probably have a field day with this one: The 3-0 Gophers have a 2% chance of reaching the College Football Playoff, according to FiveThirtyEight.com’s college football prediction model.
To play it out a little further: The Gophers are twice as likely (2%) to reach the CFP as the Twins are to blow the AL Central division lead (1%), both per FiveThirtyEight.
