Stats for the stats god โ€“ great first #UniversityChallenge episode to open Series 54. Hope Liverpool will get to come back, it'd be a pity to lose them so soon, but what an innings from Queen's. Especially Sam Thompson (with more points to his name than the entire opposition)

More stats! Incredibly #UniversityChallenge close match with everyone on the scoresheet, but I'm sure UCL will be back - a terrific effort, especially from Mandel. Each team took 10 starters, but Open took it on bonuses after a few unlucky guesses from UCL.

An incredible #UniversityChallenge performance last night by a swaggering Bristol team. Great things to come from Ted Warner, I'm sure. A pity that Caius never really got off the marks; I've played the team and I know how much more they have to offer on a good day. Stats below:

Stats for tonight's #UniversityChallenge episode see Thomas Hart take the lead as highest personal scorer, with a great combined effort by the whole Warwick team. UEA's poor luck on bonuses meant they're tied with Liv as second highest scoring loser - only time will tell.

Tonight's #UniversityChallenge sees Catz probably out, seeing as we've already had 175 and two 125s, but who knows. A few fewer penalties could have snagged them a repechage, but despite a good show Wadham may also have to worry about top-scorer Billore's accuracy moving forward.

Apologies this is so late. Last week's #UniversityChallenge match saw an incredible performance from Imperial knock out another team with impressive pedigree in the form of Manchester. Last year's winners look like they're back for another innings, incredibly unusual for UC.

This week's #UniversityChallenge saw a confident Exeter team (congratulations especially to Mouelhi getting the first four starters) handily defeat Reading. Sadly Reading won't be coming back - 5th highest losers so far - but good attempt at a comeback (Finkelstein especially)

Absolutely incredible #UniversityChallenge match with a thus-far (and likely for this series in its entirety) unparalleled 11 starters from Darwin College's Harrison Whitaker. Although neither team's bonus conversion was stellar, an impressive attempt from Birkbeck nonetheless.

Last week's #UniversityChallenge match was really a nailbiter - a very evenly matched Durham team narrowly lost to Oriel, Oxford, but they'll almost certainly be back for more in the repechage. Very impressive from Armstrong for the Oxford side.

I'm not going to post stats from episodes I'm actually in, it just feels too awkward. I'm still keeping track of course, embarrassment can't take the spreadsheets out of this man at least
