With the release of "Dumb and Dumber To" this week, we were inspired to ask Loren Maxwell, the computer-rankings guru, to calculate the chances of each state-playoff team winning the state title out of 1 million. Or as Lloyd Christmas said, "I came a long way just to see you, Mary. The least you can do is level with me. What are my chances?" All 112 teams have a chance, Maxwell is saying.
