Dude, that's awesome. Have you looked for any relationship between the difference in your predicted win probabilities and the "excitement index" that ended up resulting from the game? In other words, could one estimate with a high degree of confidence that the Chargers game this weekend is going to be really exciting, while the Texans game is not? Even better would be an exptected excitement index. This would be a huge asset to somebody, say a friend of mine, who is trying to decide where to sit in the bar all day on Sunday.
