IWS #232: The results

[panerd]

Questions 1 & 2 ended up being quite interesting with a few big name schools ending up on both the overrated and underrated lists. I also found the regional biases very apparent as some sets of answers were clearly Big 10 fans, some SEC fans, and unfortunately for the West Coasters there weren't enough of you. Question 5 ended up being an eliminator if you didn't pick Saban or Meyer. And even though I thought there might be a better spread on question 6 I did kind of anticipate Oregon would win. My friends and I have a road trip scheduled for Death Valley next year and the answers for #4 kind of scare me. :)

Good spread of answers. Means that they were good questions. Thanks for running it.

[Logan]

You guys need better wives.

[panerd]

You guys need better wives.

Yeah I think my wife would like UNC's and Tennessee's a lot more than Oregon but Oregon is the classic stupid answer as they are pretty much what comes to mind when you say college football uniform.

[britrock88]

UNC's new ones are nice!

Heh. I was in it through 4 questions! Then homer answers (for Michigan) took me from a possible 3rd down to 4th-to-last.

Grats, digamma! Well run, panerd! (Great place category names...)

[digamma]

Hook 'em! Fight on! Hold that Tiger and all the other stuff.

Will try to get a new one up in the next day or so.

[Umbrella]

Dang, the stadium question got me. I liked this one, good job panerd.

[timmae]

Good stuff!

[Alf]

I failed on the Oregon shirts

[claphamsa]

Maryland clearly has the best uniforms!

[MIJB#19]

Hook 'em! Fight on! Hold that Tiger and all the other stuff.

Will try to get a new one up in the next day or so.Congrats on another victory!

[CU Tiger]

#1 none of the Clemson answers were me, I swear :)

#2 unless you are coming to SC you are going to Deaf Valley next year, not Death Valley. Death Valley is and always has been in SC. ;)

[MizzouRah]

Well done Panerd! Gary Pinkel coaching tree lol

[Eaglesfan27]

Darn... I was going to go with USC for underrated but then I thought that was just my own bias and talked myself out of it.

[Pyser]

knew i shouldve switched to ND for question 1 after submitting. oh well. that was a fun one.

[BYU 14]

Now I know why I rarely do these, LOL
