Wow, it didn't occur to me to downgrade Davidson due to lack of style points.  I enjoyed the result too much!

I'm with you. You go with what works. If that produces "ugly" tennis so be it; winning is beautiful

Addendum: I play ugly tennis and don't win, so I am too familiar with one of the alternatives.

I've assume the Anybody But Stanford Cup multipliers for some sports has to do with how much those sports are on ESPN.

In the early years of the US News university ranking we were ranked relatively higher, occasionally even finishing 1st, until they perfected the formula so it most accurately reflects each school's relative merit. Similarly, perhaps it's merely a matter of continuing to refine the formula until Stanford is in its proper place in the athletic standings.

"They" needed it.  It was an Oklahoma State player who collapsed.  Not to say we couldn't have benefitted from "the glove".

I don't know.  According to Ricardo Montalban (as played by Billy Crystal on SNL), "It is better to loook mah-velous than it is to feeel mah-velous."  :D
