  1. I miss the old days where we could fill times like this with algorithms, coach’s biases in ranking and the 0.001 change in computer rankings that could result if Syracuse wins and Oregon State loses. After all, it was quantified and open, and we could do all kinds of scenario analyses to come up with probability distributions. Now, it is just a bunch of old people discussing behind closed doors. No fun at all.
  2. If you want to address unequal SOS going forward, you bring it up with SEC and through them to ESPN, B10, etc for better clarity on SOS, win-loss record, etc. One easy change is to make it clear that the win-loss record is going to be weighed by the teams that one wins or loses against, i.e., a combination of SOS and the results weighed based on SOS. For example, playing #1 on the road and losing is -0.5 (winning is +1.75) whereas beating Samford is +0.1. Currently, everything is +1/-1, which is very silly, and every team would be incentivized to play Samfords of the world. Getting things moving along this direction would provide clarity to everyone and offer compelling games to us.
  3. Not if you are an exec, especially if you are going to your competitor. Any exec will have all his paperwork done with the new place and will inform his employer fully expecting an immediate escort to the door. A typical engineer gives a 2 weeks notice and gets a chance to wrap up work and attend goodbye lunches. An exec is in meetings the whole day with company sensitive data and no one will feel comfortable with him/her in there. But an HC is different. He is not just an exec but the whole team. It is better to keep the team to meet your critical goals. For Ole Miss, it is mostly just pride and maybe bluffing with a very weak hand.
  4. The refs give a lot of leeway to both teams' shenanigans. These players are coddled in this game.
  5. They should have run there. Michigan D was tired.
  6. This drive is so methodical.
  7. The latter since that throw is out in less than a second.
  8. our offense lacks that quick throw to the vacated spot by the blitzing LB
  9. Satya, looks like you have won your 5:1 odds bet with HenryJames(?) that aggy will be undefeated coming to Austin.
  10. his ankle/shin was OOB and he didn't complete the catch.
  11. We’ll join you.
  12. He is no Mendoza
  13. you need the TO to setup the FG. If you wnt to talk, spike the ball.
  14. Mendoza in a zone
  15. Every play has to be followed up by soccer goal celebration.
