File under meta, but the various site Indices, Lists, Charts, and Graphs have been refreshed heading into rivalry week with Michigan State and the back half of the season:
- The Hate Index: One of the oldest trackers on the site measures the relative fanbase hatred between Michigan and the Big Ten (with Notre Dame tossed in.). This attempts to assess each perspective: both the view of Michigan fans toward a particular opponent, and the other way around. This is always good for a few laughs. I rebuilt it to be more web and mobile-friendly and added a note on historically when the flames were the hotttest. See above for a breakdown of our jolly green friends.
- Rivalry Strength: Related (but different) to the Hate Index, but this maps the strength of our football rivalries over time, going all the way back to Amos Along Stagg vs. Yost. It only counts actual rivals (Sorry, Penn State). This is typically tracked on 5 year intervals. Click here for more, but this is a chart just including our active rivals:
- Traditions. The list and stack-ranking of Michigan football traditions. A new add for The George Jewett Trophy (Bump Class for now).
- The Uniform Timeline. Easily the most popular pages on MVictors, the rolling history of changes to the Michigan uniform.
- The Mood. The next most popular regularly updated tracker, this is the weekly temperature check on the mood of the Michigan fanbase. We’re at 88 if you’re playing at home:
