The Mid-Majority : Season 8 - The 800 Games Project

The 800 Games Project

To celebrate our eighth year, the Mid-Majority community took the site over, going eight times the distance of the original 100 Games Project by Kyle Whelliston (who's on permanent sabbatical). The result was a unique, living, fully crowdsourced document of the 2011-12 men's Division I college basketball season, all from below the Red Line. Learn more about the Project here.
