Thats why its up there. LSU had a middle of the pack defense. Purdue had middle of the pack offense. If Purdue is full strength the model probably expects a 38-31 LSU win.

LSU holding Purdue to 7 points greatly exceeded the expectations of the model. It was Purdues worst offensive performance of that season by a large margin. hence the great defensive rating.

This rating is all about how much LSU's defense exceeded expectations. Thats why there arent any 2011 or 2007 games on this list. Those defenses were expected to be dominant by the model.
