    Each game that goes by Jacobsen bangs a little harder and harder in the post. Nice to see!

    Mr. Red reacted to AMSTS in 2015-2016 KenPom Rankings Thread   
    Hi guys,
    I am the guy from AMSTS. Saw you guys linking in and was reading the thread so thought I would answer your comments.
    My rankings are all done via computer (in Excel) and there is no known Big Ten (or Pro-Purdue as yes I am a Purdue fan/alum). I use the same system for football and basketball and Purdue didn't fair too well in the football rankings
    The ranking is made up from two subcomponents: a win ranking and a points ranking. Each individually is loosely modeled on the Elo Chess method, but iterative (beating Team A in week 1 is the same as in week 10, unlike Elo). So if you have two teams that beat, say, Wisconsin, the first by 4 and the second by 8, team 1 would have same win ranking as team 2 since all wins are equal. The points ranking would go to team 2 which means their overall score would be higher (67% win, 33% points, roughly).
    Hope that helps. I write plenty of other stuff on the site, so I hope you all take a look. Thanks for the PR, I am hardly some KenPom, just a schmuck living overseas writing his crappy blog so that one day he can get big enough to not have to work overseas any more
    If you have other questions feel free, I will keep an eye out over the coming days.

    Mr. Red got a reaction from AuroranHusker in Pavelka   
    After the final buzzer when they cut to their first commercial, he thought they had cut but the mic stayed on and he said something to the tune of:
    "Gee I wonder how many people can come up and pat me on the back after the game... like 'Oh hey good job Matt...'  Sometimes I think if I just leave my headset on they'll leave me alone"
     
    He said it in kind of a mocking tone; obviously he gets annoyed with random people coming up and making comments to him like they are old buddies.

    We can put a man on the moon in 1969, but we can't televise/stream a basketball game between two power 5 schools in 2015?!?!

    Up arrow for first ever recognition for the unheralded semicolon. The colon traditionally receives all the publicity.

    Mr. Red reacted to Silverbacked1 in "Slowest game in the world." Izzo, Dawkins call for a shorter shot clock. What do YOU think???   
    Well at least they won't need to buy new clocks because they already have the women's 30 second clock.

    Mr. Red reacted to throwback in New Testament   
    Quite a few guys stepped up for NU yesterday but #21 was huge too, recording his best numbers in more than a calendar year. Not bad for a guy not quite 7 months off an ACL injury:
    7 pts was his highest pt total since 1/12/14 at Purdue 7 reb was his highest reb total since 1/5/14 at Ohio St 30 min was the most he has ever played as a D-1 player, either as a Husker or at SMU For this season in total he had played 34 min with 9 pts & 7 reb before the MSU game, so he basically doubled his season numbers in one game Tai's play came out of nowhere yesterday, but so did Smith's. We're going to miss Rivers' steady play for this week's road games, but it's really nice to have another senior to plug into the starting lineup.
