Aren't they the artificial in artificial intelligence?

Jim Harbaugh was suspended from being on the sidelines for the final 3 regular season games but he is allowed to coach during the week.

Yes, and 'their' "intelligence" is highly artificial.  'Garbage in - garbage out' was the saying at Nuclear Power school when I was a young man.

Oregon's national championship odds once again improve after win over USC

 

With just two games left in the regular season, and a potential third in the Pac-12 Championship down in Las Vegas at the beginning of December, it’s fair to say that this is crunch time for the Oregon Ducks.

 

Every goal they set at the beginning of the season is still attainable, and with a trio of wins, it’s a very real possibility that Dan Lanning and his team are competing for a spot in then national championship game at the end of December.

 

As Oregon continued to roll this past weekend and pick up another win, this time over the USC Trojans, their odds to ultimately win that championship continued to rise.

 

Here are the latest betting odds, courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook...
