It could be a way to make you feel jealous, and it appears to be working, but it certainly doesn't mean she wouldn't go out with you.
If she didn't like you then she wouldn't want to talk with you,
Just ask her whether she had seen the game you were playing in, and if so that's great, but if she didn't doesn't matter, she may have been occupied elsewhere, but you're in love with her then bump your hand next to hers, she may clasp it and start holding hands, if not then don't stop.
Pat her on her back when she has done something she is excited about, I know in hindsight, I was silly when an opportunity could have happened when I was at college.
You go home so you think of her, you're in class and think of her, doesn't that mean 'love is in the air', tap her hand and let us know how you get on. Geoff.

Hi William,
Thank you for sharing your story with us. It sounds like you are feeling overwhelmed with the situation you are facing. At this age it is very natural to have these kind of emotions, it is part of the process of growing up and experiencing life. We've all gone through them.
I noticed that you mentioned that you are not special, when at the start of your story you mentioned that you are good looking and smart. That makes you really special you know and it can be a good start to your approach towards the girl that you like. How will you use your intelligence to approach the girl William? This is a question to reflect on and put in practice rather than assuming what could happen.
You also mentioned that you talk a lot with each other. Grab the opportunity to learn more things about her, her interests, her values. You don't have to have the same interests or become someone you are not. You are beautiful as you are and they will love you for this uniqueness.
I hope I helped a bit. Let me know how you go with your approach. We can discuss it further if you like.
Have a great day
Anton
