VANDY IS DOWN WITH THE MATH, YO

Using SAS and Stata I concur with your finding that the probability of vanderbuilt losing is statistically significant. /actually sitting in library using said fucking pos programs

Can’t they just take aggregate SAT scores FTW and save us all the trouble?

Monocle Bowl!

Calculus, son! Those ain’t jersey numbers, they’re Erdos numbers! NOBEL PRIZE BITCHES!!!

conveniently overlooking the fact that I took three separate semesters worth of stats classes, never mastered SPSS, and had to be stroller-pushed through the last bit…

Mike Leach at age 80 = Paul Erdos of coaching! Won’t be able to peel an orange or drive, but he’ll still be able to put up 600 yards passing a game using 4 yard splits and a 3 star QB!
Hopefully, by that time, he’ll have just succumbed to the temptation and will have a peg leg, flintlock pistol,and smoking beard braids at all times on the sideline.

So, for these two teams, is a Prop 48 student someone who scores below a 29 on the ACT?

I want the attorneys on this side, the doctors on this side, accountants and actuaries over here, and all of the authors and educational types over there……is that how they pick the teams at these diploma factories?

So THAT’S why the USChikins didn’t go to a bowl game last year – nobody on the coaching staff or team had ever taken a math class!

If they had, they would not have lost their last five games. Simple as that. I don’t know if USC has math classes, but I do know Midlands Tech has remedial algebra and Counting For Dummies (or something like that).

Here’s hoping Vandy gets to go to a bowl game… the only time I root against Vandy is when they’re playing the Intercollegiate Varsity Tackle Football Squad from Athens.

Totally not related, but very awesome nonetheless:

On espn news, Trevor Matich just asked Cap’n Leach to rank the Big XII quarterbacks. Coach Yarrr responded just as I thought he would: Graham Harrell #1 and “the guy behing him here is second.” No others were mentioned, but Matich and Leach discussed dating advice for a spell. Luckily I’m not making any of this up.

@YoYo – I took “Counting for Dummies” and totally kicked its’ ass.

Go get em Tony. Heard that Richard Feynman, Milton Friedman and Paul Dirac barely passed it way back when.

So much for Nobel Prizes meaning something.

How much would I love it if they just kept right on losing to a Cutcliffe squad? A very lot.

Total Thread Jack, but Rudy Ray Moore has died… Bow your head for Dolemite.

I’m gonna let ‘em know that Dolemite is back on the scene! I’m gonna let ‘em know that Dolemite is my name, and fuckin’ up motha fuckas is my game!

the massively improved Duke Blue Devils

But…but…but…this is a might ESSS-EEEE-SEEE team against a lowly and pitiful ACC bottom feeder. Vandy beat MIGHTY Auburn and Ole Miss (on the road even). They played tough against Georgia.

This is a gimme, right? Duke is a cupcake, right?

I actually got through Vandy without ever taking a math class. Take that, Bobby!

…now that I think about it, maybe this means the football team was better educated than I was.

So you’re telling me NO player on either of these teams has a posse?

The Erdos picture was nice, but you should have instead used a photo of a notable mathematician who actually has a connection with Vanderbilt. The only one I can think of right now is Alain Connes.
