abstract:In computer networking, specifically Internet Relay Chat (IRC), netsplit is the disconnection of a given node from the previously established network or between two nodes. As an IRC network is an undirected acyclic graph, a split between any two nodes splits the entire network into two pieces.
Recall that the Jets clipped the Steelers in Pittsburgh in Week 15 by the score of 22-17, while the Bears and Packers split 2 close regular season contests where the net difference in points between the 2 teams across these games was 4 points in the Packers favor.
