Alright, let’s talk about Ohio State basketball back in 2010. I got really into it that year. I remember I wanted to see how good they actually were, so I started digging.
First thing I did was to pull up a bunch of game schedules from that season. I wanted to see who they played against and what the scores were. I spent a good few hours just gathering all this data, and man, there were a lot of games.
Then I got to work organizing it all. I put together a big list, game by game. I made sure to note down the opponents, the dates, and whether it was a home or away game. It was pretty tedious, but I wanted to get a good overview, you know?
After that, I started looking at the scores. I highlighted the wins and losses, just to get a quick visual of their performance. I also checked out if there was a big difference between the score, so I can see whether they smashed it or just nearly won.
Breaking Down the Wins and Losses
Next, I wanted to see if there were any patterns. Did they do better at home? Were there any teams they consistently struggled against? So I started sorting the games by location and opponent.
- Home Games: I looked at their record when playing at their own place.
- Away Games: Then I checked how they did when they were on the road.
- Opponent Performance: I also made notes on which teams gave them the most trouble.
This took a while, but it was cool to see some trends emerging. They definitely had a stronger performance in some areas than others.
I also started watching some game highlights. I wanted to see their playing style and who their star players were. There were some awesome moments, and it was fun to see how they pulled off some of those wins.
In the end, I had this massive collection of notes and stats. It was a lot of work, but I felt like I really understood Ohio State’s basketball team from that season. It was a cool project, and I learned a ton about analyzing sports data.
And that’s pretty much it. That’s how I dove deep into Ohio State basketball for 2010. It was a neat little adventure, and I enjoyed every bit of it.
