How FEI and S+P (sort of) see the game: Oregon at MSU 2015

Early on we have virtually no useful data about how two teams are going to play - but that never stopped us from making a whole lot of vaguely informed guesses into what the game is going to be like. How bad was our defense? How neat are the new S+P numbers? Let's get it on for the first advanced stats article of the season.

FEI is the Fremeau Efficiency Index, created by Brian Fremeau. Brian Fremeau is an author at Football Outsiders,ESPN and BCFToys. FEI is an advanced statistical measure for college football that tracks drive efficiency instead of per-play success.
