This is ESPN's version, and....it strike me as pretty reasonable, actually, given what I've seen this season: http://www.espn.com/college-football/team/fpi/_/id/59 If the season played out this way (wins over Pitt and BC, and squeaking one out of UVA/VT/MIA, how would you guys feel?)

Good result today. You guys should be pleased.

I could, but tbh without all-22 film it's a little tougher to make it compelling because TV angles don't let you do a great job identifying coverages pre-snap (they're zoomed in pretty close), and the art of the passing game is largely about knowing what you're going to be looking for before the...

Note: I've got a couple of these in my head for different things you guys do a lot, but I am coming off knee surgery so it may take me a week or so to get them out.

Why, perchance, do you think the basics of the play have not changed in a century? It's the same reason sharks and alligators look the same as they did umpteen million years ago: When you stumble onto something that works REALLY REALLY well, you stick with it, and Power never stopped working...

Here's Shotgun Power (2010's-Today)

Here's I Form Power (70s-2000s)

Truth be told, the play hasn't changed much in the hundred and 13 years since. You have "kicker" (the first guy through), and you have a "wrapper", second guy through. Everybody blocks down, sealing the hole, the Kicker kicks out the first guy in the way, the wrapper cleans up anything left...

He was set up EXACTLY where the offense wanted to go, so what did they do about it? They said, well, lets give EVERYBODY ELSE on the offense an angle advantage (meaning they don't have to win for the play to be successful, they just have to achieve a stalemate), and set it up so we only need ONE...

It looked like this (the positions had different names then, but I'm going to use the modern equivalents, to make it easier to understand, so you Single Wing purists out there give me a break). In this setup, the offense wants to run outside the right TE, but unfortunately for them, a guy named...

So, there has been a lot of talk on this forum about schemes and using players, and such, so I thought I'd do a little piece showing what it is that you guys actually do, so that if you're watching the game, and want to rewind a play and understand what's actually going on you can. Before we...

For the record, he was right. Reporters generally don't know what they're talking about. Fans generally don't either. On this board, almost nobody does. @Ibeeballin knows how to watch film. @flea77 knows how to watch film. That's probably it. Maybe a couple of others I'm missing. The rest of...

LOLOLOL. If there was ever a dude made to be a S/C coach, it's #70. That middle 3 of Braun/Lee/Bryan was the nastiest interior OL ever put on God's green earth. I'd have killed to see a real 3O QB behind those three.

You're likely to win comfortably this weekend. If it's a single digit game, this could be a LONG year.

"We decided to play big boy football, put a fullback and 2 TE's in the game, and see who had more hair on their sack. Turns out, the answer was us"

Which is why I said "over time". In any given year things can push up or down some, but in other years, the teams around you may have had more transfers, thus artificially inflating your recruiting numbers. For the time being, it's a small sample size, 2 classes. But the 48 is just as real to...

You like bronco more than I do :-)

Yes and no. I used to post more several years ago. I'm a UVA fan, so feel free to tell me to piss off :-)

Lolol, that was the most disjointed post I've ever made. This is what happens when you're driving around doing speech to text into your phone trying to think about football and also navigating DC traffic :-)

I don't agree with it, because everybody has access to the transfer portal, and thus over time, those guys are baked into the rankings. I'm sure if you dug around, half the teams in the country have a "yeah but" Factor they can make an argument if they wanted to. I'm fine with point one...
