Texas Women's Soccer
yeah, I'll leave it to the soccer experts, but that NC in year 1 and then not following it up with an elite 8 or sweet 16 kind of makes you wonder but the year before(2021) the NC the previous head coach lost to UCI in round one. Maybe we needed UCI's Head Coach, jk. not really the amount of time as a HC that we usually see CDC go after but hopefully much better than kelly and the recruiting ties to Cali could be huge.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
auto bids are different. they also said if you make the conf champ game you very likely don't get punished. one of the reasons SMU made it over Bama last year plus "surprise" loss column SMU 2/bama 3. we are discussing number of losses before the CC games. they also can't really consider CC games much because "another surprise!"...Notre Dame doesn't have a 13th data point for you old schoolers(aka a CC).

if those are our only losses we are in, if we play Wisconsin or Vriginia Tech, etc. we did beat the pants off of a playoff team as well.

IMO, we'd be 8/9 with win against a decent P4 team but would still need to beat aggy and would then be guaranteed in.

the bold is why they sprinkle in the 1 loss/2 loss non SEC/Big 12 to cover for the SOR. the group loss the SEC/Big Ten Tech at 5 should be a red flag but hidden by the fact that 1-4 are Big Ten/SEC. I would submit Indiana at 4 is a yellow flag given their SOS at 49 and OOC of ODU, Kennesaw, Indiana St, but tOSU's is 46

Florida is not good and it was a bad loss but they also have the #1 SOS. hell they aimost beat and got fucked against Georgia AFTER their coach got fired. since we like to talk about bad wins like Kentucky and MSU. I do agree they totally gave up after the loss to UGA.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
it is about the number in the loss column. I bet if you take a neutral site Tech, BYU, Utah, Vandy, OU, Mich are not favored. Bama would be a slight favorite, IMO. not sure on that because it is a huge rivalry for them but we'd be favored, neutral site.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I think they mainly changed conf champ get bye's to top 4 overall get bye's not because of what happened with us as the 5 but because AD's were saying what is the advantage to scheduling big time OOC game if I only get a bye by winning the conf. now there is a small chance winning a big time OOC game gets you a bye but if they just rank by loss column what is the point. Tech at 5 is a good indicator. they are #5 with one loss to #20 ASU. they played a 2-9 Pac 12 left behind Oregon State, have a SOS of 70, yet they are #5 because they only have a 1 in the loss column. I could make a case they should be just ahead of Bama or even behind Bama with the #6 SOS. it is about the loss column and it always will be.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
well of course there is reality/data/logic as to the best path to make the playoff and then there is "PUSSY!"- 2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
what is the "loss column"? Alex- 2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
maybe, depends on if your coach wants to practice or not.- 2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
if you want the best chance to get into the tournament on average yes. I would submit that I'd like our coach/OC/QB whisperer to have an actual real OL coach and build a real OL and make sure our 3 year in the program 5 star QB is ready to go.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
H2H only matters if you have the same number of losses. it does matter a lot more than SOS when there is same number of losses. top 12 or top 25 wins matter very little. "deserves" got nothin to do with it...- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I don't think anyone is saying it is a travesty if we don't get in. we have 3 losses.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
they will never not rank by losses. they even fixed the Texas Michigan issue they had mistakenly set themselves up for because of it. anyway, we took the 3rd loss and so we are out. it is funny aggy bitched enough that they will not have Bama and UGA in the same season ever. always next year. wonder what happens if heisman finalist Mateer has a season ending injury?- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
all games count. I would vote for 10 conf games and 2 OOC.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
exactly. lets get rid of most of the beauty contest and just say 3 losses you are out. we will pick the best 8 from the rest, no auto bid and the champ game of your conference actually counts- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I was on board with the 8 team 25 years ago with the 12 team conferences. play 10 conf games and 2 OOC. the superconferences screwed this all up because you can game the system with the schedule(see aggy this year). 2027 and 2029 we have UGA, Bama, ND. sure we could win 3 of those but could lose all 3. meanwhile Tech with the 70th ranked schedule and loses to Arizona fucking State. is in. they didn't beat all the teams they should beat. Utah with the 50th ranked schedule and 2 losses is ahead of us. even aggy's schedule is 15 or something while playing the dregs of the SEC and ND. Ole Miss played no one OOC and almost lost at home to Wazzu, should have lost to LSU and possibly the same Ark team we drilled. they should just say the cut line is fewer than 3 losses and we'll pick the best 8 from there. then everyone knows the score. our SOS will always be good enough with a decent P4 and 2 others and there will always be arguments. we are out with 3 losses no matter what, as was Bama last year, due to the necessity for the committee to include other Big 12 and ACC teams and even a 2 loss ND(with a 27th SOS this year) in the mix. G5 just makes it worse. G5 can get fucked at this point, IMO. they can have their own 8 team playoff. maybe these last 2 years are outliers but I'll believe it when I see it that a 3 loss non conf champ makes the top 11 in the super conference era because they rank by number of losses. don't lose 3 games regardless of who they are to.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
then we should go to top 4 teams regardless of conference.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
our D is certainly not peaking. having smith out in the 1H isn't going to help.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I dont think anyone knows how good aggy is they played the bottom half of the SEC and ND.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
yep. we couldn't afford a 3rd loss and the Florida game was the easiest of the 3 to win.- 2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
not a chance. MIch lost to the only 2 good teams on their schedule and only one of those is in the playoff. they had to fix it for the loss column just in case the world burns.- 2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
right, we are talking if OU or Bama or both loses. - 2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
