Multiple choice public poll (on the way)

Who stays undefeated?

Bartman · October 11, 2011, 12:06am

Michigan, on the road against a ranked in-state rival looks vulnerable.
Oklahoma St, is in a very similar situation.
And I don’t think Kansas St. is as good as their record.

Those are my choices for who gets knocked off this week. I really don’t expect any of the rest to falter.

MadTheSwine · October 11, 2011, 5:52am

Texas Tech will beat Kansas State.
Tennesee upsets LSU

Darth_Sensitive · October 11, 2011, 6:15am

K-State loses.
Michigan/St is going to be close. I call it a toss up loss.

And OSU is going to run UT off the field. No doubt in my mind.

Mince · October 11, 2011, 7:23am

Soooo, what part of Tennessee you from?

Zeldar · October 13, 2011, 5:01pm

Just to bump this into view for those missing it the first time through, here’s a summary of the voting thus far (10 voters):

TransMonk        1 Wisconsin

ETA: Just noticed the Clemson count is off. I’ll correct in the next post. Sorry!

Zeldar · October 13, 2011, 5:12pm

Here’s the actual Clemson voting:

Clemson
Bartman, Darth Sensitive, hende, MadTheSwine, Mince, Oredigger77, Wolverine, Zeldar 8 72.73%

For some reason I had not credited MadTheSwine and Mince in the summary. Again, sorry.

Barkis_is_Willin · October 13, 2011, 6:41pm

I just voted for the following:

Wisconsin
Michigan
GT
Boise St.
Stanford
Alabama
Oklahoma
LSU

I’m not impressed with MSU at all. I’m not all that impressed with UM, either, but the B1G is really down.

Zeldar · October 14, 2011, 3:02am

Here’s another summary. If more votes come in, I’ll post a final summary after the poll closes tomorrow afternoon.

Is anyone interested in doing a SDMB top ten poll again this year? I’ll create a thread after this week’s games.

Zeldar · October 14, 2011, 12:53pm

Go for it!

Zeldar · October 14, 2011, 1:08pm

I’ve just now spotted that I confused Bartman for Barkis is Willin’ in the case of Illinois votes you folks did. I do those summaries manually so the similarity of names is my only excuse. Sorry for that, and any others I have yet to spot!

In the Final Summary later today, I’ll triple-check things.

Zeldar · October 14, 2011, 9:10pm

Here’s the final summary with cross-check totals:

Does anybody have an idea of how to score this? Is there a standard method for awarding composite scores?

I had a brainstorm that may work, may not, but I thought I’d try for some input on it.

Please refer to the Final Summary in Post #13 for the starting point.

First step would be to remove the teams that lose from the crosstable.

Second step would be to replace the team name with the total number of votes it received. For example, if Illinois wins, everybody with Illinois in their row would get 9 points for that cell. Do that exercise for all winning teams.

Third step would be to total for each voter the points in their row.

Fourth step would be to sort by total points.

How could that method be improved? Is there a better way?

Zeldar · October 16, 2011, 3:04pm

Minus the bells and whistles here’s one arrangement of the winning guesses.
