6/ We've never before seen so many sports fans saying that an effective #1 losing to an effective #5 would have no chance of causing the latter to jump over the former in the rankings. People *do* realize that 2-loss teams get ranked ahead of 1-loss teams *all the time*, right? — PolitiTweet.org

5/ I find it interesting that the statisticians say Wisconsin has a 51% chance of getting into the CFP if it wins tonight, but all you can get sports fans to say is "Wisconsin won't win!" Why won't folks play along and consider the oddness of the hypothetical situation described? — PolitiTweet.org

7/ I mean, don't get me wrong, I *totally* get the argument for OSU staying ahead of Wisconsin even if it loses tonight. All I'm saying is that I don't get why statisticians can easily see the opposite result—but sports fans can't. I just find that a conceptually weird situation. — PolitiTweet.org
