Bye Week? More like: bye, productivity.
I’m not lying when I say we all owe @andrewwinn a round — you guys liked the 2013 #HLSrecap Top 25 stats he put together so he volunteered to do the same for the ENTIRE 2012 SEASON. He is a legend in his own time; now you can get angry at me (12 months after the fact) for not quoting you more often — just keep in mind that your inclusion/exclusion is why we went undefeated last year.
You’ll recall I composed a highly-unscientific Preseason #HLSrecap Top 25 before the 2013 season began. It turns out that 2012 performance had little/no bearing on that (just like the real college football polls amirite?) So I’ll link to the complete 2012 appendix table, and given you the relevant game-by-game stats and season summary below.
