Matchup analysis
Our model projects North Carolina A&T 29, Hampton 25 at Armstrong Stadium in Week 11. That is a lean: North Carolina A&T wins about 61% of the time by our estimate, with a projected margin of 4.2 points and 53.6 combined points. Tags: upset alert.
North Carolina A&T is 3-5 against the 118th-toughest schedule so far, scoring 20.3 and allowing 29.5 points per game (-9.2 per game). Hampton is 1-7 against the 142nd-toughest schedule so far, scoring 17 and allowing 36.3 points per game (-19.3 per game).
College football is noisy: even a well-rated projection misses the final margin by about 14 points on average. Based on how real results have scattered around our numbers, the final margin should land somewhere between North Carolina A&T by 27 and Hampton by 18 about 80% of the time.
Hampton gets about 2.1 points for playing at home. North Carolina A&T is still favoured on the road, so the ratings gap is bigger than the value of playing at home.
