New Sagarin Out
UofM is ranked #29 in Pure Points (and #14 in ELO Chess what the BCS uses). Our next opponent, MSU is ranked #40 (and #16 in ELO Chess).
If the point predictor is accurate we should be a ~5.5 point favorite with the homefield advantage.

Way to steal my post. I was about to put my weekly Sagarin post up.

Yeah, it sucks getting your posts taken right from under your nose. I have been wanting to do a weather post for a while now. Normally, I would wait until 24 hours before the game for the most accurate weather update. Unfortunately, those "other" weather updates get up 6 days before the game. I just can't react in time. You can't simulate speed.

This.

I guess your weatherman doesn't have dreadlocks. Unfortunately, a google image search for "weatherman with dreadlocks" doesn't return any results that would pertain to this post.

The internets are faster lower part of the mitten.

That's because we're more SOUTH than the UP. And obviously everything fast must come from south of wherever you are*.
*Theory not tested in the southern hemisphere. Actual Unifying Theory of Speed may indicate that everything fast must come from places closer to the equator than where you are.

Not to nitpick, but isn't MSU 28? #40 is Texas Tech.
October 3rd, 2010 at 12:14 PM ^
Also, it should be noted that we are #23, not # 29.
October 3rd, 2010 at 12:32 PM ^
No, I am referencing the Predictor Pure Points poll as noted, because Sagarin says that it is most accurate.
October 3rd, 2010 at 12:14 PM ^
He's talking about the predictor.

Denard would be ranked by himself.
October 3rd, 2010 at 2:55 PM ^
Denard would be ranked #1, of course.
Then probably LaMichael James and Kellen Moore.
