Agreed. And we would do well in a 3 yard and a cloud of dust league as we are strong against the run. If LSU hadn't figured out the forward pass so amazingly fast we would have won that game by double digits.
Gata is not a top 10 team. Beating tenn at home 34-3 seems like a decent win until you look at vols, they lost to fucking Georgia state 38-30 at home, the same team that lost to Texas state yesterday. That was TxSt first conference home win since 2015 and they beat them in regulation, refs put a second back on the clock allowing a FG and TSU won again In OT
Don't do transitive property and all as a single data point, but when you start compiling evidence it's obvious Tennessee is very, very bad.
Its hard to argue Bama and LSU in the top 4 based on how they have played so far, UGA looks more like a 6-8 team. I would have LSU, tOSU and OU ahead of them. Barn I would put around 11-12
Not really. LSU beats Bama and plays in CCG. Winner of that game goes along with Bama. We have seen this episode before, and there are several permutations that work here, maybe 5 of 6 different scenarios. Meanwhile for every other conference there is just about 1 possible outcome.
SEC slant is ruining college football, one loss all but eliminates 99% of teams from contention. SEC can take 2 on the chin and still be in the hunt.
SECx3 = 6 Barn and gata are probably 11-20 range aggy still ranked is a fucking joke 1/2 of their conference is complete garbage
B1G = 6 tOSU is probably top 4 right now and wisky looks like top 10 UM probably still overrated at 20
PAC = 5 Cal might be the best team in the conference, they should not have 5 in the top 25
B12= 3 fuck OU. OSU should be at 20 instead of UM. Overall conference is better than ACC and PAC
ACC= 2 Its a 1 team conference that utilizes the same scheduling advantage as SECx3. Worst conference yet again
G5 = 2 Meh
Dome. UGA is overrated, surprise. Dome benefits from that by staying inside the top 10. 5 guaranteed losses ahead of them minimum, they probably drop another game.
This year looks like there's more parity at the top (15ish teams), so naturally the spinners are working overtime to position 2 SECx3 into the playoffs
aggy needs to suck it up and keep paying Baggins until saban is ready to retire. Then go ahead and offer him a 1 year/ $75M contract.
They desperately want just one MNC in the modern era, fleeting relevance they can ride into the next 36,500 sunsets.
But don't tell them that even Saban couldn't win it all at aggy, just a middling program with natural limitations. Actually, it doesn't matter if you tell them, they won't believe it and would gladly scrape together the funds for whatever insane contract their next ringer demands.
Over the last 10 years USC ranks 5th behind Bama, tOSU, FSU, and UGA
Last year is really dragging down their average but that hasn't caught up to them yet. Coaching has, however.
That's what I figured and officiating should be standardized across the board. If holding is or isn't going to be called the technique can be developed to accommodate. Having different standards during the season is bullshit.
One thing about SEC refs seems they don't call much holding and they let the players play without calling every helmet contact. Protect the players for sure, but they wear helmets for a reason and helmets will collide.
Its insane sometimes seeing targeting called when it happens, meanwhile if you watch line play every down the trenches collide. Just have a look at an OL or DL helmet after any game
I'm going to go out on a limb and say the LSU game had something other than B12 refs because I finally subjected myself to a rewatch and Sterns would have been ejected >3 times for targeting/helmet to helmet.
It's what he recruits. He's recruiting the best talent available at WR and OG, and by 2022 he should have 45 receivers and 40 guards on scholarship.
It's going to be interesting to watch.
1000 seemed like a foregone conclusion, but a new commitment only garners 5-6 actual posts and that's just not going to do it with the class mostly full.
We might get 80-100 pages when the actual faxes come in, but that still leaves us 200 pages short.
Back in the stone ages westlake was in a district with Waco, Temple, Coperas Cove, etc. Couldn't get in district with AISD schools because Austin said travel to Westlake was too far.
Has anyone who has time to do this shit thought of a FOIA for LSUs visitor locker room?
For one to see if they have similar data, and particularly to see if they even have AC in that backwoods swamp?
