This is the only one I can answer. The sun's light is full spectrum, but when it hits the earth's atmosphere a phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering occurs. The different bands of the light spectrum are scattered by different amounts depending on their wavelength, the shorter blue end of the spectrum is scattered most and that is why it dominates the color of the sky. During sunset and sunrise the light has to travel through more of the atmosphere, and it scatters the blue so much that the red and yellow end of the spectrum dominates instead. If you were sitting on a body with no atmosphere, like the moon, the sky would appear black at all times, even during the lunar "day". I only know this because I had to explain it to an 11 year old during the holiday break.

WKU wins when the game "ended" on a hail mary as time expired with the score 20-20. However, WMU had 12 men on the field. On the untimed down, WKU hits a 52 yd FG.

If you want to cheer on another G5, Eastern Michigan is about to take on Pitt.

Fans are weird. We had a guy who won the conference 4 straight years and there were people ready to run him out of town ASAP.

Opponents have a lot to do with it. Our last two bowls we faced USU (finish 11-2), and Troy (11-2). LaTech has faced Miami (6-7), and Hawaii (8-6). As crazy as it seems, LaTech fan board wants to run him off. In 7 years at LaTech, he has won at least 9 games 4 times, but he has never won the CUSA championship game.

Didn't miss that one.

That's mainly because Miami missed a couple of throws that should have been picks.

They were #11 at the time USU beat them. When USU lost to Boise, Boise was #21, but they ended up #18. You are right, MSU lost to UM in 2018, I misread the schedule.

My bad, but that still was #11 MSU, who beat Michigan.

Miami and FSU are both 6-6 ACC teams. Both better teams than we are, but all four of these teams (NT, FSU, Miami, and LaTech) would get buried by 2018 Utah State.

I guess you mean Utah State in the New Mexico Bowl? 2018 Utah State would murder this Miami or LaTech team. 2019 Miami is 6-6. 2018 USU was 11-2, only losing by 7 at #11 Michigan, and by 8 at #21 Boise State. They ended the year ranked #22.

FIU beat Miami, lost to Arkansas State, and finished the year at 6-7. Miami is no longer a juggernaut.

FAU 28 - SMU 14

Yes, the data is kind of dirty because in the end the offers are self reported, we don't know what has been pulled, and not all the offers are at the position the recruit signed for. However, it's more or less the best their is. Are you hand building those lists? 24/7 doesn't offer API access so I was thinking of building a site scrapper to collect all that data. Wanted to compare ranking and/or offer lists of players in G5 conferences, and see if those metrics relate to success within that schools conference record over the lifetime of the recruit. Have you ever used PowerBI? It's a very good vis tool and has some good data cleanup tools built in. Ping me if any of this sounds interesting.

Jamario had offers from aTm, TT, Colorado, Ark, and Arizona St.

The only problem is that so few of them make it to that 5th year of eligibility.

We need answers @emmitt01

That’s not what I’m asking!

Congrats Emmitt!
