That's what we used to call a target rich environment! :wink:
It's just interesting that the quality of the opponent rises to the top of the discussion when your own team is involved. That is why I brought...
Sid, Corey, I watched the game, and the only reason I brought it up is because it is the same situation we have this year. So all of the talk...
That reminds me Sid, we had this discussion before, 1965 (or 66?)Alabama undefeated, Notre Dame went for the tie and won the NC. Strength of...
Gip, The difference is that SOS has no meaning once the BB tournament starts because you have to make it through the bracket. There is no bracket...
Uncle! You're right Utah would be undefeated no matter their conference after all they beat Michigan. The Mountain West is a tough as any...
Exactly, but we don't have a tournament and that is the problem. In basketball SOS doesn't matter, except to get in the tournament.
Corey, That's a little bit overboard don't you think. I have another simile for you. Three teams start a race and there are 2 courses you can...
Corey, So strength of schedule and past years performance do play a role? It seems like you don't put much credence in those points elsewhere.
Corey, Utah won my respect this year but I still don't think that year in and year out they are tested like schools in the "major" conferences...
MCG, All I know is that for the Florida game I was on the edge of my seat the whole game, and for the Utah game I was hoping the last 5 minutes...
Corey, I have to agree with you. Utah took away the run from Alabama and pressured the qb much more than UF. Alabama did come to within 4 pts...
At this point we shouldn't let "perfection" get in the way of "good enough". If we started with the top eight, then the PAC10, Big 10, SEC, Big...
The only Red Tide that I have ever heard of is the Red Tide of communism! Now Utah did play the Crimson Tide of Alabama last night! :wink:
Utah played the Russians too? :roll:
If you took the top eight in the BCS standings and started with them you would just about get all of the real candidates. If you took the top 16...
PLAY OFF! PLAY OFF! PLAY OFF!
There's something to that. The combination of the Alabama loss and the Texas Tech loss makes you want to go hmmmm?
Corey, I hope so. I am dehydrated from crying all night! :wink:
Outbound, Agreed. That is the whole point. Just like in every other college sport, there is no argument after the tournaments. Either you win...
