I must apologize, but I made a tactical mistake.\u00a0\u00a0 I noticed on the NCAA Official Site that they have much more available information on the games and thought it would be good to leverage the official source.\u00a0 Figured this would save me lots of time figuring out the neutral games since their schedule would officially say what were neutral games (instead of the obnoxious process I have had to do in previous years of getting all the stats and then manually identifying all the games).<\/p>\n
Well, I went in this morning to update all the schedules, read in all the games, and started to do a quick sanity check on standings.\u00a0 Much to my chagrin, the site is fully updated through Thursday – with some Friday games.\u00a0 And of course, my standings are updated through Saturday.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 Who would have guessed that the official NCAA site would not have their stats available for games that happened over 24 hours ago.\u00a0 So now I don’t know if I am missing anything.\u00a0 While I always say take the stats with a grain of salt, it also feels horrible to put the data out there without knowing that I have all the games.<\/p>\n
I am looking for some other ways to sanity check (without having to look through the schedules of 347 teams – which is over 5,700 games).\u00a0 I will try to get this out by the time the weekend ends – sadly, this might impact my ability to put out a bracketology page (or maybe I will wildly try to take a stab at a bracket in one hour late Sunday afternoon).<\/p>\n
At least this gives me an excuse to stay awake and watch \/ listen to the Pac 12 championship game between UCLA and Oregon.\u00a0 See what the Bruins do without Jordan Adams….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
