META: Hokepoints came down
You may have seen Hokepoints up this morning, and now you cannot see it anymore. I had a major data error (a bad sort in my spreadsheet) that ruined my data and made too much wrong for me to just cross out. I'm rewriting it now. Apologies to those who got the bad data.
UPDATE: It's in the hopper, will go at 5 tonight.
...how off were your conclusions. That said, I still encourage you to consider doing a year to year comparison of Michigan teams over the past 10 years or so.
Mostly the stuff about ohio state -- Somehow Oregon State gave the Buckeyes all of their penalties, and some of Wisconsin's as well. Damn Beavers.
Don't you mean "Beaver dams"?
So we didn't win the MNC last year afterall?
Damnit.
He was right. We HAVE been massively underestimating all the work he does.
It'd be interesting to see how our rivals behaved against Michigan vs the rest of that season. It seemed like State had a lot of violent calls when they play Michigan.
from a 2011 article talking about the dirtiest rivalries in college football. "Over the past five years there have been 20 roughness and behavior-related penalties, 16 by the Spartans." Source. I think it's safe to say that when a team commits 80% of the roughness penalties over a 5 year span it sways the opinion of the opposing teams fans.
Growing up and continuing as a regular churchgoer, I read your title and immediately in my head heard, "Hokepoints came down, and glory filled my soul..."
Sorry. Just a view inside of my strange mind. Carry on...
"...when at the blog Seth's data had some holes..."
This in 4 part harmony.
My first thought on the title was to wonder what Hokepoints were on YouTube and express outrage at them being taken down.
Maybe this isn't the right place but since it's a META thread is was wondering when we were going to see the points/voting system changes we heard were coming this summer?
The website redesign is kinda on hold since the guy who was going to head up the project has been extraordinarily successful in business and family in the last few months, thus our project of love has moved down the list of priorities.
See, this is what I'm talking about. Seth is always too conecptual...
and now it is up.
