HuskerinSE Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 When seeing the records "graphically" it leaves me with mixed feelings. Interested to see how other fans feel. https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/3rrjt4/i_got_bored_so_i_made_this_graphic_on_excel_this/ Quote Link to comment
Kiyoat Husker Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Why didn't you just link to the image? Also, look closely at the x-axis in all these graphs. The bottom is always zero, but the top number varies by team. This gives a skewed look when you are trying to compare apples to apples, as this guy/gal is doing. For example, the top of the huskers graph is 80% and the top of Ohio state is 120%. This makes Nebraska look better. I don't think there is an agenda there, but just laziness. Excel automatically chooses the value range based on the data. You have to manually set the range to be the same on each graph. Lazy and misrepresentative. Pretty, though. 1 Quote Link to comment
Bo's Ghost Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Pure domination by those Tree Nuts. I wonder how low our line will dip this year... Quote Link to comment

Pretty, though. 1.) copied the wrong link.2.) I was most intrigued by our line graph over the last few years. "This looks good." Was pretty far from my mind lol. Quote Link to comment
