The game is believed to be the first regular-season college football game to ever be played at the venue. The Bears and Bulldogs have met only twice in their history with Fresno State winning on both occasions. The Bulldogs were victorious in the first meeting between the schools in Berkeley on Sept. 9, 1995, squeaking out a 25-24 win. The last time the teams played in Fresno on Sept. 23, 2000, Fresno State was a 17-3 winner. Cal and Fresno State have not played since Cal head coach Jeff Tedford, a former Fresno State quarterback, became the head coach of the Golden Bears prior to the 2002 season. Cal Readies for AT&T Park; Back to Memorial Stadium in 2012 After playing the last 88 seasons and every home game at Memorial Stadium since the facility opened for the 1923 Big Game, Cal will host its home games outside of Berkeley for the first time in 2011 while Memorial Stadium undergoes an extensive renovation and retrofit.

    The Math of Fantasy Football

    The Math of Fantasy Football Sponsored by Advanced Sports Logic: It’s All in the Math A Major Qualifying Project Report submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science Submitted By: ____________________________ John Lucker ____________________________ Patrick Maynard ____________________________ Matthew Poppa Keywords: Approved By: ____________________________ 1. Football Professor Jon Abraham 2. Sports 3. Advanced Sports Logic ____________________________ Leonard LaPadula, CEO This report represents the work of three WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. Abstract The team, with the help of Advanced Sports Logic (ASL), researched and developed a quantitative method for rating projections of professional Football in order to easily compare the quality of projection systems. We used real life data and projections provided by ASL to gain insight on how to develop the method. The team decided to evaluate the projections for an entire football season to generate an annual score for projection systems. What we created was a rating system that would help developers of projection systems by providing them with a quantitative measure that they could use to value the quality of their projection systems. ii Authorship This report was developed through the collaborative efforts of John Lucker, Patrick Maynard and Matthew Poppa. All group members contributed equally to the completion of this project. iii Executive Summary Advanced Sports Logic (ASL) is a company founded in 2009 by Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) alumni Leonard LaPadula.
