Andy’s Thoughts:
- Nathaniel didn’t have a great outcome on Daily Doubles, an opponent went large on theirs, and Final Jeopardy! didn’t break his way. That’s pretty much the exact formula on how a heavy favorite loses on Jeopardy. Was the prediction model inaccurate? Maybe. It’s obviously hard to predict based on one game. It’s quite possible that the prediction model should take into account the possibility that Game 1 was an outlier. It’s something I’ll look at going forward.
