This past week, America switched back to standard time. A week later than should have, but alas here we are. It's throwing everyone off at the Resident Genius World Headquarters, but there's another place where time matters.

There is a credible argument to be made to put Indiana as the #1 team in the country. INDIANA. A big reason why they're doing so well is that they're holding onto the ball for 34:43/game, which leads the league and 4th in the country. They head to Happy Valley on Saturday to face a Penn State team that is dead last in the league in TOP.

Q: How long will Indiana have the ball?

Deadline is Saturday, November 8 at 11 AM CST.  Good hunting.

BTW not all of America switched time.  Some of us are smart and don't allow it.  Only good thing about DST is games start at 10am instead of 9am

1 measly hour? That's gonna screw you up?

I'd spent the previous week in Hawaii so I was already adjusting to a 3 hour time difference. I flew back on Saturday, landed after midnight, drove home and the time change occurred between leaving the airport and getting to my door. Didn't fall asleep until at least 1:30 AM (2:30 actually before the time change). Then woke up early because once the sun comes up (which was ~5:40 AM vs ~6:40 AM), I'm up.

And I was fine.

I don't understand how people get so out of whack based on 1 hour... How is someone who can't handle one hour going to deal with an overseas vacation?

hah, I've read headlines(clickbait) about experts doing studies about the ill effects of time change of one measly hour

most folks have no set bedtime or sleep patterns a tall, they may set the alarm clock for the same time monday-friday to get to work on time but otherwise they're all over the place with schedule.

it's foolish - foolish science

I'd like daylight time to be permanent or have our side of Florida be central time.
