I played rugby at Tech for like a year and a half and loved it. When people bring up the football injuries I always bring up rugby. To me the pads are actually a part of the problem. When you have pads on it makes the player feel like they can throw their body around more carelessly since the...
Why not? ugag is VIEWED this year as being a great team for beating middle of the road to terrible teams all year and even struggling often against them. So it is YOUR OPINION that they are better than Boston College. To be clear I THINK ugag is a better team than Boston College too but it is my...
What if we got away from rankings all together and go to standings only. You could even look to the ESL model that has been brought up and have different points assigned to wins. An off the cuff example could be more points weighted for P5 wins vs G5 wins vs FCS wins. Could also have more points...
Agreed. Birr is much more accurate but Gavin has the stronger leg. That is why the coaches had Gavin doing kickoffs and Birr doing field goals (at least until Gavin got hurt this year and lost some of the power).
THIS!!! The SEC rankings and SOS are self inflated!!! And because they always schedule weak OOC games it never gets challenged even when they lose all of the top 10 OOC games they played
That's just minor leagues. If the sport is supposed to be separated from the academics, then there's no reason to associate it with the school anymore.
Agreed it will still be drastically flawed until they define clear and fair rules as to who gets seeded where (like how conference championship teams are determined). However in the end of you go undefeated through the season and playoffs you will be the champion. Therefore you as a team control...
This 100%!!! The FBS is the only division any any sport (that does not have judges) that subjectively determines a "champion". We got away from the polls and went to the BCS cause the polls were completely subjective and at least the BCS had 50% of an objective analytical element. Then we said...
So they left FSU out cause "they struggled to get first downs" with a true freshman 3rd string QB who didn't know if he would be playing until the day of the game and who will not be playing in the playoffs. While Michigan, who played fully healthy that same day and put up the same number of...
You are right cause Bama's only meaningful wins are against other SEC teams which are artificially inflated due to perceptions of how good the conference is.
If only there were ways to compare performances of teams in different conferences. Oh wait there is cause they do play each other out of...
The CFP committee last week said with their rankings that FSU was the 4th best team in the country WITH their 2nd string QB. FSU then goes and beats a top 15 team with their 3rd string QB and somehow they are now the 5th best team? Make it make sense!!
No of course they aren't but what they are is a team that dominated a team they should have putting up 50-something points and a team that won by 2 scores against their SEC rival. And then went out with a true freshman QB yesterday that didn't know if he was going to play until the day of the...
Bama lost to the only relevant team outside their conference. We were BY FAR the best team ugag played out of conference and they struggled against us. The best win the SEC has against the P5 is Kentucky over Louisville in a rivalry game. Outside of that the next best may be Miss St over Arizona...
The SEC has a losing record against other P5 conference teams this year! The ACC has a winning record therefore the ACC is a better conference then the SEC. Saying the SEC teams are "better" is pure subjective bias without any quantitative metrics! You can only say they are better cause they...
I hope you are wrong but just saw that FSUs 2nd string QB is now ruled out for today's game. They are down to the 3rd string at least for today's game.
