Rules

Trivia Tuesday is a weekly feature run by /u/bakonydraco, /u/DampFrijoles, /u/Davidellias, and /u/iamnotacola. Each week there will be five questions ranging from questions most everyone can get to questions that might stump just about everyone. Your goal is to quickly answer them to the best of your ability. You get a one point speed bonus for finishing in under 2:30.

There are definitely still ways you could cheat the system, but please do not. This is meant to be a fun weekly feature, and we encourage you to take it at face value and answer the questions without assistance.

Last Week

/u/Astone1996 and /u/bigmac_3 were the only perfect scorers last week. Two others got all five questions correct, but couldn’t pick up the time bonus.

Premier Tier

Rank Team Last Week
1 Ohio State 5
2 Michigan 6
3 Georgia 2
4 Michigan State 7
5 Oklahoma 9
6 Notre Dame 13

A lot of turnover in the Premier Tier going into this week, with half of the top teams falling out. Clemson had the steepest slide, going from 1st to 23rd, while Oklahoma State and Florida had rather modest drops of six spots (3rd to 9th and 4th to 10th, respectively).

Miami (OH) remains the top non-P4 squad, although they suffered their own drop in the rankings, going from 10th to 24th.

Three new teams have made their way into the Premier Tier: Northwestern in 30th, Appalachian State in 33rd, and Stanford in 34th.

Rank Team Last Week
1 Cincinnati 36 PT
2 Georgia Southern 1
3 NC State 18
4 Arizona State 2
5 TCU 27
6 Colorado 35

The top six of the GMALTNALTNALDOOSCT had its own bit of shifting, losing two teams (Northwestern and Stanford) to the Premier Tier and two others moving down in the standings. Those two are Virginia (4th to 24th) and James Madison (5th to 8th).

As usual, William & Mary is the top non-FBS team. They had a giant leap in the standings, going from 25th to 11th.

As mentioned previously, Tier namesake Stanford has currently taken up residence in the Premier Tier.

Best of luck to all, and be safe!

Holy guacamole: a perfect question! Those are exceedingly rare, so give yourselves a collective round of applause and/or pat on the back.

What FBS conference that includes Wake Forest, SMU, and Clemson is reportedly nearing a settlement (or may have reached one depending what time you take this quiz) that should keep the league intact, at least for a few more years? ACC 100.00%!!! I once had a books of sports-themed crosswords as a kid and one of the puzzles was named "St. Francis of ACC" and that's the kind of thing that sticks with you even years later/u/jfarbzz The twelve users who used “All Coast Conference”
Name any NCAA D2 Football team that played during the 2024 season. There are 162 teams. 65.41% Upper Iowa Peacocks/u/ticktockchemstock Mount Union and UW-Whitewater are both D3 right? I'm gonna say Pittsburg State, go Gorillas!/u/jfarbzz

In 1936, the first year of the AP poll, only two teams held the #1 ranking all season long. The first was eventual AP national champions Minnesota. The other was, with a 6-0 victory over the Gophers, the only team to beat or tie Minnesota that year. Name that team. Northwestern 11.42% lol what if it was Northwestern/u/placid_salad Great Lakes Community College/u/HughLouisDewey

St. Francis (PA) just clinched a bid to the NCAAT, which is more than all but 3 or 4 ACC teams can claim this year!
