Math: Not just for nerds anymore...

... says the guy married to a math major.

Congratulations to the Florida Gators for their impressive victory over Oklahoma.

Today, it's time for "fun with the Transitive Property". This post is in honor of the great Trevor Schultz, a proud Seattle Pacific University grad who always compiled this list for me.

So, we know who's #1 (hint, they're undefeated), but there's discussion of a split title. After tonight's game, I can't help but agree, and hope that you'll join me in supporting the 1-11 Idaho State Bengals as the co-champs with the Utes.

You see, their only win was against Sacramento State

who defeated Eastern Washington
who finished their season with a win over Weber State
who beat Montana in the regular season (lost the rematch)
who fell to James Madison in the playoffs
who were beaten earlier by William and Mary
victorious over New Hampshire
who upset Army
who triumphed over Eastern Michigan
who felled Central Michigan
who beat Western Michigan
who handed Illinois an enormous upset
after they had defeated Louisiana Lafayette
who ended Middle Tennessee State's season with a loss
but MTS found success against Maryland
who also defeated Clemson
winners against South Carolina in their huge rivalry game
yet the Gamecocks managed to beat Mississippi
the only team to defeat the Florida Gators.

And for those people who still believe that U$C would have an argument because they are "playing their best at the end of the season"- ISU's sole win was the last game of the year.

In addition, Eastern Washington (see above) beat Weber State, who lost to Cal Poly, who defeated San Diego State, who finished off their year by beating UNLV, who defeated Utah State, who counted Hawaii as one of their three victories, who conquered Fresno State, who defeated UCLA, victors over Stanford, Oregon State's opening loss. The Oregon State that beat U$C.

Oh, and Texas fans? Remember that you lost to Texas Tech, who was pounded by Mississippi, who... well, you know the rest.

Fun, huh? Makes about as much as fun as the other formulas we use.
