What is the source for those rankings?
Was FSU in 2010 even the best win after the win? I'd take 2002 Alabama and 2008 TCU, but those were at home. We played pretty ****ty non-conference schedules for the first half of Stoops tenure,...
Thanks. That was a meme I think I was better off not knowing. That's 5 minutes I won't get back.
While 3-4 isn't impressive, based on Sagarin predictor ratings, those games were against the #1,1,2,2,5,7,8 teams in the SEC in those seasons. Not awful, not great.
The article was just written...
Can you explain this to me? I live in Michigan and don't get it.
I don't see too many problems with that list so far. I'd have White higher, Peterson lower, and McCoy lower, and Austin off the list entirely. Not totally unreasonable. Peterson was obviously the...
Last year's West Virginia. Not that it means they'll be that average, but putting way to much stock in a bowl game compared to body of work.
Devin Gardner had good numbers last year and will definitely start for Michigan.
I didn't grow up in Big 8/12 country, so it's possible that I appreciate the rivalries with ISU, KSU, KU, etc. less than the average OU fan. That said, I think most conference opponents lack any...
West of SB?
Everyone should just do what we did in '99. Make friends with ND undergrads, invite yourselves up for the weekend, party your balls off, and p**** out in their apartment after hitting...

The Tech game in '08 was a white out? I guess it was a black out for me, because I was there and don't remember it.
Thanks for letting me know you ****ing ****.
Actually, a big fish in a small pond is precisely what Oklahoma has been throughout its history. The Big 12 is better than the Big 8, and Bob Stoops has won it eight times (including 1 shared) in 14...
This. I can understand the argument that NCs are the standard, and you think the chances of getting one with Stoops are low, so you favor a change. But the chances of the next coach winning the...
It's not?
Game strategy/management is most visible to fans, but I've come to believe that it's really not that important. Coaches are measured in wins and losses, and clock management or pulling a pitcher...
Average by SEC standards = best defense in the SEC that year? (3rd nationally)
The NCAA imposes a rule that you can have no more than 25 initial "counters" (players getting scholarships for the first time) in a year. This means that it's impossible for teams to give sign more...
@TheBoots: Good point, dumb****.
You can only have an EE count against the prior year if you have less than 25 in the prior year.
Aren't TCU and OSU at least arguably better on the LOS, or not? We can p**** block like MFers, but that's really it (can't run block that well, can't rush the passer, can't stop the run).
1) OU does the same thing, having EEs apply to prior years to stay among the annual signing limits, and 2) ****s here complaining about pulling scholarships obviously haven't thought through how...
What does "cased the safety mean?"
I haven't watched enough of the Rams, and even if I had, I'm not exactly qualified to be a scout, but does any of the blame lie with Bradford? In the action I've seen, he reminded me of Joey...
Y uses the prior year as his starting point, but I think it's his prior year computer ranking, not a poll.
We only got to the CCG by virtue of being ahead of Texas (and ranked #2).
Can you list the 25 (or more) teams that should be ahead of Texas, or am I misreading you, and you aren't saying they shouldn't be in the top 25?
This is so ****ed. It's not beneath us, as evidenced by the number of conference championships painted on our stadium, many of which were shared (and some of which we undoubtedly would have lost a...
