Podcast: David Hale on turnovers, college football in 2018

By Dr. Ed Feng 2 Comments

On this episode of The Football Analytics Show, David Hale, writer at ESPN, joins me to talk college football. I invited him on the show to talk about the analytics of turnovers, but he also had some great betting insights.

Among other topics, we discuss:

  • How game situation impacts turnovers (11:42)
  • The type of defense that struggles to force turnovers
  • The catastrophe of Florida State football, and whether to back or fade them
  • How turnovers impact the point spread in blow out games (27:42)
  • The difference between Nick Saban and Dabo Swinney that affects games with big point spreads (28:58)

Everyone should read his article on turnovers in college football.
