I should add @ibeattetris and @GetYourBuzzOn here, to add in more info. A lot of the models have “priors”. In the case of FEI, it’s the last 5 seasons., so it’s one of Johnson’s worst seasons followed by 4 of mostly Collins. We started that model this year with an F- average to dig out of...

Most of the stats models that get brought up (FEI, F+, SP+, Beta Rank, Sagarin, etc.) aren’t just ranking systems (like the CFP poll), but they’re also there to predict who will win a game. It’s tough to keep track of all of them if it’s not your full time job. It’s not my full time job. They...

I think we’re running an offense more like WKU or USCW. Think Air Raid with a strong running game—still balanced. We’re more based on spread and speed. https://www.sbnation.com/platform/amp/college-football/2017/8/2/15986274/lincoln-riley-oklahoma-sooners-offense

Fridge ran a power I and one set with a fullback, and tailback, and a deep back—straight I with three backs. Only once for that.

So, Herbstreit thinks we were one of the top performing teams of the week. It’s been a while since we got kudos, so let’s take ‘em. While we’re at it, Kelly Ford ratings: (kfordratings.com) Up to #57–looking up at NCST and Pitt, but up a lot

We have TEs we can use as fullbacks (H backs). Mike Alstott or Jerome Bettis are nice to have, but they were beating us off our blocks. We need a counter or a trap or something to make them pay for guessing. Or we need to block faster.

If you had to do tiers, how would you split them? Would UVA and VT be paired up, or would would you clump the bottom 4. Is it FSU and then a gap, or is UNC close behind? IMHO, the SP+ and FEI models underestimate us a little—there’s a bias from the last four seasons that isn’t worked out yet...

Waaaaay back on page 10. We’re in the middle right now. Three teams haven’t even played a conference game, and we’re Miami’s first conference game in two weeks. SCHOOL ACC OVERALL Florida State 2-0 4-0 Louisville 2-0 4-0 Duke 1-0 4-0 North Carolina 1-0 4-0 NC State 1-0 3-1...

I can only comment on what I see. Maybe that’s why he was bracketed and the pass overthrown. Unless King saw him break free of coverage earlier (unlikely if he was being held), It’s still the wrong read to throw to the double-covered receiver. Someone had to be open on that play.

I would like Pyron to get a lot of reps against Bowling Green after King is healthily relaxing on the sidelines with a big lead in the first half. Knock wood 🪵

I’d have preferred ND take their losses in ACC play ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Don’t take this as me being negative on a win. I think we got just 10 points off of the 5 turnovers we should have gotten at least double that. We hit some beautiful big plays, but we don’t grind it out very well (we aren’t efficient). The last couple of years, we didn’t move the ball a lot...

We need to figure out the run blocking though. If Miami does the same thing to our run game that WF did, their secondary is better and we don’t want to be one dimensional against Miami.

As of right now (week 4), 10 of the top 10 teams in the AP poll are undefeated. If I count correctly, 18 of the top 25 are undefeated. There are also teams outside the top 25 that are undefeated. The ACC currently has 6 (Louisville, Duke, FSU, Miami, Syracuse, UNC). The Big12 has Kansas, Texas...

Here you go—the highlights. The last drive for Wake, we play prevent—very heavy on bend vs break. King’s first int is just bad. He threw some dimes that were beautiful. He’s got a high ceiling, but runs hot and cold. If he works out those kinks, he’s top-tier. That’s why we could use something...

Yeah, but we gotta take away Shipley—and that’s been tough for us in the past.

They will probably give them all a close game, but be underdogs in all three. The Clemson game will tell us a lot about Clemson and about Syracuse. Clemson has lost to #18 Duke 28-7, beaten Charleston Southern and FIU, and lost to FSU. Syracuse would be their first quality win of the season...

I don’t agree about the refs, but Griffis isn’t exactly killing it. See Post in thread 'ACC Standings' https://gtswarm.com/threads/acc-standings.27239/post-962967

Two QB views from ESPN ESPN’s QBR (what they add by throwing and running) And sorted by EPA (how much you add to the expected score) King is in good company. What holds him back is points. Shrader probably isn’t getting enough attention.

I don’t know if it’s the play calling, or that we need a way to get a reliable 3 1/2-4 yards. We had a few nice runs—especially the last TD—but mostly they weren’t effective. This team either needs an effective and efficient running game or something else that’s efficient (screen passes). King...
