using R4.2.3 it is really hard to do predictive analytics to due absence of RevoScaleR, weird issues with HTML GUI and models breaking down.... time to manage our own R environments I guess
My solution attached.
Used all regular season games and the following 4 attributes to train the model - opponent score, total yards, passing yards, rushing yards.
Accuracy % on the training data was 80% and accuracy on the testing set (2 superbowl games) was 81%.
Based on that, you would think it is just another game. But it is too small of a sample size to make definitive conclusions. More investigation required.
