Data! It's what's for breakfast!

Goes down much better than a lot of the half-baked opinions served up by some around here. Thanks for the work, SS!

I'd like to see us play in more bracketed tournaments in the future. Preferably of the 8 team variety. I know Richard has said he's not a fan of them, but it's the only way we are going to get really high-end games.

The quad system is going to cream the high quality mid-major programs. Harder and harder for them to get games. That said, Gophers need to avoid the Quad 4's like the plague.
