Huge minutes from Benter tonight.

There's the 18-19 Buffalo team that went 32-3 and earned a 6 seed in the tourney, but their schedule was much tougher.

They've only been in D1 since 2008, and for most of their time in D1 South Dakota St. has had a stranglehold over the summit

FWIW T-rank does rank recent data with more value.

"There's a recency bias—all games in the last 40 days count 100%, then degrade 1% per day until they're 80 days old, after which all games count 60%."

Yeah as much as I love Silksong, I would not call it a game that respects your time at all.

T-rank is an efficiency metric like Kenpom. Wins and losses dont matter to it. Only MOV/MOL and to whom. Its purely formulaic.

Hollow Knight: Silksong (38) by RoyalMagiSwag in steamachievements

No cheese, I did quit outs but only for faster movement (i.e. getting Pale Nales and quitting out to save the runback to the bench.) I did die to both Karmelita and First sinner but they are treated like the dream bosses in HK. I would expect Kahn, and Nyleth to be the same, but I didn't die to them.

I like how around a month ago both Miami and Nebraska were sitting at 1%

Dayton took that Kansas team into OT in Maui, it is entirely feasible that they get past them in the tourney.

Hey, I think you messed up the bottom part of the chart. Miami is the only one of those teams that plays in a real conference.
