META: Hokepoints came down

Submitted by Seth on

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.

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...

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?
