					<description><![CDATA[Seriously?  You need a chi-square test to make a reasonable determination that the SEC is complete garbage this year?  The losses to Mercer (x2), VMI, UIC, Loyola, Charleston and N. Iowa (among others) didn&#039;t convince you?  How about we do some regressions for you as well?

Nevertheless, we&#039;ll take the Pepsi Challenge.  The Chi outcome is .1128.  Does that make you feel better?  Not significant, but a strong degree of independence nevertheless.

One thing we do agree with you - we should have put up our data source, but we&#039;re not sure what you&#039;re talking about with &quot;two guys.&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Why not make a cross tab with the names of the conferences in the header rows and header columns, and the winning percentage in the cell? Then you could run a Chi-square to determine if the cross tab (e.g., the whole table) is due to luck or randomness. That would tell you about a thousand percent more than your posting or two guys doing god knows what to data drawn from god knows where.]]></description>
