I understand the logic of the scoring, but it creates fairly counterintuitive rankings in this case.
Actual score was Stanford 26, Kansas State 13.
The top two in these rankings both guessed Stanford would score 27, so they are even on that side of the score.
One guy then guessed Kansas State's score exactly right at 13, while the other guy was off by a point.Â
Yet, the guy who was off by a point wins over the guy(s) who was exactly right?
Algorithms aside, seems like the 27-13 guy out-guessed the 27-14 guy...
It's all in fun, but this is nerd nation, so couldn't resist. Also, how does the bonus column work?
