  1. A look at March Madness: Pretenders and Contenders

    Every year, a friend and I take a look at the coding competition at Kaggle and try to predict who will do well in March Madness each year by predicting the probability of each and every possible matchup. The data for this is pulled by bringing in information from various websites, and then...
  2. Bracket Challenge

    thats right. No wins over at-large teams and i forgot who their win over conf-champ was. This years bracket was interesting based off how average the first four and last four were. All had comparably average resumes in one way or another
  3. Bracket Challenge

    Fwiw USC has one win over teams in the field total being Rhode Island and ASU has wins over 2 one seeds. ASU has a much higher ceiling IMo
  4. Obstruction of Justice

    No, it would be if the FBI said they were going to be looking for people who they think are bank robbers. They wouldn't neccearily know who they were or told the governor which ones were bank robbers. Essentially you can't obstruct justice when there isn't a defined crime you're obstructing...
  5. Obstruction of Justice

    Issue is ICE coming somewhere to try to find illegals isn't obstructing a crime. Had ICE given the mayor had been given names and addresses and then gave the warning it would, but in the section before the quoted section, it talks about the necessity of warrants in OOJ. Think of it this way...
  6. Obstruction of Justice

    Agreed. Likely one of the reasons minimum wage hasn't kept up with inflation. Thing with this is that immigration is a federal responsibility and not a state one was it's hard to say they are impeding justice when they aren't doing anything. Had they said they were coming for Tom, Joe, and...
  7. Where does College BB go from here

    Due to title 9, paying them will open up a can of worms when a female field hockey player has to by law make the same as a heisman candidate. They should be able to profit through endorsement deals and that's about it.
  8. Las Vegas Mass Casualty Attack

    its not from ads. They give money to the NRA and then NRA members receive discounts if they receive services. Boycotting works both ways so you do you. Boycotting the NFL has done wonders so far.
  9. Arrests coming due to college bball kickbacks

    issue is where NCAA and FBI juristicions come into play. FBI cares more about the fact that people are getting paid and not paying taxes NCAA realizes the FBI found something and then has to decide on rather or not it wants to act on it, its just they can't really hide anything due to the...
  10. Las Vegas Mass Casualty Attack

    That goes both ways though. As the hashtag implies, people can choose to boycott companies that support the NRA. Its just a matter of them 1. playing into PR from the attacks 2. trying to be on what looks like the majority side. If the surveys are right and over 50% want policy change, i...
  11. Las Vegas Mass Casualty Attack

    in absolute no instances (outside of maybe 1 or 2 due to poor forwarding). With Due Process and privacy rights, the FBI will always be limited in what they can do because of that. There is no ifs and or buts about that. Whisky_Clear said what i wanted to say in a clean and concise manner...
  12. Las Vegas Mass Casualty Attack

    countless studies have shown there is no relation to video games and violence FWIW
  13. Las Vegas Mass Casualty Attack

    Issue with the FBI and youtube comments is predominately due process. Although there is a ton of suspicion, there is only so much you can do before an actual crime is committed. Its a weird blend of trying to maintain people's rights while also trying to restrict people's rights to things they...
  14. Clemson is up to 7 transfers

    good luck trying to recruit someone by telling them youre not good enough to play at XYZ school so please come here where you will actually play when XYZ school is telling you that you can compete for a starting job day 1.
  15. Did the CFP system work??

    The issue is that history is a big deal for college bowl games to the point where the dividing factor between divisions is literally bowl games being in the title of FBS versus FCS. half the fun of college football comes from traditions and bowl games are traditions. It's not that the removal...
  16. Did the CFP system work??

    I will say I prefer a 8 team playoff but decided by the BCS system. It was a decent system, just needed more teams. Combination of both would give G5 teams respect when they deserve it as they definitely got their fair share in the BCS system
  17. Did the CFP system work??

    I know I'm a dead horse at this point, but UCF was undoubtedly under ranked and comparing them to WMU last year is a joke, but the committee got it right. Hard to argue against them beating the 1 seed. Bama is better than UCF in almost all advanced stats (also played Bama at home while UCF was...
  18. The National Championship Game

    1. ESPN has more coverage on Lavar Ball then football 2. Even if there was a conspiracy, UCF far and out had the most financial gain to ESPN if they made it as they were the overwhelming fan favorite. ESPN can push narratives but that doesn't mean people buy them. They adjust accordingly. 3...
  19. Rose Bowl

    It's been way more mediocre play calling than anything else. Run pass run for basically all 4 of those chances.
  20. Rose Bowl

    I don't know why y'all hating on OU. Their defense isn't something to write home about, but uga hasn't really played any team with an offensive pulse either. With the trash talking uga did to Baker earlier, there is a fire under his *** to win. 1 win over 12-win teams in Ohio State 2 wins...
