Two questions involving Bayes Theorem 
You draw two balls from one of three possible large urns, labelled A,
  B, and C. Urn A has 1/2 blue balls, 1/3 green balls, and 1/6 red
  balls. Urn B has 1/6 blue balls, 1/2 green balls, and 1/3 red balls.
  Urn C has 1/3 blue balls, 1/6 green balls, and 1/2 red balls. With no
  prior information about which urn your are drawing from, you draw one
  red ball and one blue ball. What is the probability that you drew from
  urn C?

So I know Bayes Theorum is this:
On a high level, could I take the probability of drawing one red ball and one blue ball from Urn C and divide that by the total probabality of drawing one blue ball and one red ball from all the urns summed up?
The numerator would be $\frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{3}$ right? The denominator would the the probabilities of drawing a blue and red from all the urns summed up right?

In the NFL, a professional American football league, there are 32
  teams, of which 12 make the playoffs. In a typical season, 20 teams
  (the ones that don’t make the playoffs) play 16 games, 4 teams play 17
  games, 6 teams play 18 games, and 2 teams play 19 games. At the
  beginning of each game, a coin is flipped to determine who gets the
  football first. You are told that an unknown team won ten of its coin
  flips last season. Given this information, what is the posterior
  probability that the team did not make the playoffs (i.e. played 16
  games)?

I have no idea how to approach this one. Can someone shed some insight?
 A: So I'll give two answers one for each question. Let's first discuss the first question and then in a separate answer I will attempt to answer the second question(this might take a while because I have some other things to do :)).
So first lets expand bayes theorem and then we will consider what this means.
So want $P(drew from C|red, blue)=\frac{P(red ,blue|drew from C)P(drew from C)}{P(red ,blue|drew from C)P(drew from C)+ P(red ,blue|drew from A)P(drew from A)+P(red ,blue|drew from B)P(drew from B)}$
Technically we do not know $P(drew from A),P(drew from B),P(drew from C)$! So technically we cannot calculate this chance. But we can make a reasonable assumption and that is that $P(drew from A)=P(drew from B)=P(drew from C)=\frac{1}{3}$. Now to determien all the other terms lets start with $P(red ,blue|drew from C)$ now we assume these are independent chances e.g. If I pick blue first the chance of blue stays the same for the second choice (which would in real life not be true) than the chance of $P(red ,blue|drew from C)=(\frac{1}{3} \frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2} \frac{1}{3})=\frac{1}{3}$ remember that not only red, blue counts but also blue ,red thus we should count both possibilities.  the other probabilities can be calculated in a similar way. so that $P(drew from C|red, blue)=\frac{\frac{1}{3}\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}\frac{1}{3}+ 2\frac{1}{2}\frac{1}{6}\frac{1}{3}+2\frac{1}{3}\frac{1}{6}\frac{1}{3}}=0.428$ (approximately)
A: Below are two methods. The first uses Bayes' Theorem in full, and the second is a quicker approach (just for fun). Importantly, the two results agree! (They also do not agree with the earlier answer posted by zen...)
$X := \text{Picked Red and Blue}$, $A := \text{Picked Urn A}$, $B := \text{Picked Urn B}$, $C := \text{Picked Urn C}$.

Method 1.
Using Bayes' Theorem, we now compute as follows:
$$\frac{P(X|C)P(C)}{P(X|C)P(C) + [P(X|A)P(A) + P(X|B)P(B)]}$$
where the bracketed portion in the denominator corresponds to the cases in which red and blue were selected but did not come from Urn C.
Under the assumption that each of $P(C)$, $P(A)$, and $P(B)$ is $1/3$, we can cancel this factor from the numerator and denominator to get:
$$\frac{P(X|C)}{P(X|C) + [P(X|A) + P(X|B)]}$$
Next, we calculate each of these terms: 
$P(X|C) = 2(3/6)(2/5) = 12/30$; 
$P(X|B) = 2(2/6)(1/5) = 4/30$; and 
$P(X|A) = 2(1/6)(3/5) = 6/30$.
And so the earlier expression becomes:
$$\frac{12/30}{12/30 + 4/30 + 6/30} = \frac{12}{12+4+6} = \frac{6}{6+2+3} = \frac{6}{11}$$

Method 2.
Without loss of generality, let us suppose each of the urns contains exactly six M&Ms. Then, the number of ways to choose a red and blue M&M from the urns can be computed as follows.
Urn A: BBBGGR; so, picking RB can be done in $1 \cdot 3 = 3$ ways.
Urn B: GGGRRB; so, picking RB can be done in $2 \cdot 1 = 2$ ways.
Urn C: RRRBBG; so, picking RB can be done in $3 \cdot 2 = 6$ ways.
So the probability of it being Urn C given that RB were selected is just:
$$\frac{6}{6+3+2} = \frac{6}{11}$$
as in Method 1.
A: So for the second question I will just offer some help in the form of tips after which I hope you will understand it. tip 1: consider all teams equal so and calculate the chance that $P(played 16 games)=\frac{20}{32}$. 2. then see that the concitional probability your looking for is $P(played 16 games|coin wins =10)$
3. $P(coin wins =10 |played 16 games)$ is binomially distributed with (n=16,p=0.5) and X=10 ( or k=10 in wiki notation).
