IWS #232: The results
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.
The results... Question 1: Stupid is reading the pre-season college football prognosticators and thinks "Geez this team is really being overrated!" What team is he reading about? Notre Dame 9 Alabama 4 Ohio State 4 TCU 3 USC 2 Florida State 1 Florida 1 Question 2: Who does he feel is being underrated? USC 4 Michigan 3 TCU 2 Notre Dame 2 Michigan State 2 Boise State 2 Alabama 2 Clemson 1 Oregon 1 Baylor 1 Arizona 1 Georgia 1 Arkansas 1 Stanford 1 Question 3: Stupid can travel to any college stadium for a game. Where does stupid choose to go? (Hawaii is the correct answer) Michigan 7 Notre Dame 6 Ohio State 4 LSU 3 Hawaii 2 USC 2 Question 4: Stupid almost chose to go to this stadium but then thought to himself... "That is a pretty rabid fanbase. I might not make it out of that stadium alive." Where was stupid thinking about going? (West Virginia is the correct answer) Alabama 8 LSU 7 Ohio State 6 Michigan 1 Indiana 1 West Virginia 1 Question 5: Who does stupid feel is the best coach in college football right now? Urban Meyer 13 Nick Saban 9 Jim Harbaugh 1 Gary Patterson 1 Question 6: Stupid's wife picks up the magazine stupid is reading and says "I really like that team's uniforms!" What team is she looking at? Oregon 14 Michigan 2 North Carolina 1 TCU 1 Tennessee 1 Notre Dame 1 Clemson 1 UMD 1 Arizona State 1 Lingerie League 1 The results... The Derek Dooley Coaching Tree...

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...) |

#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. |

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.
