Are we talking about the same ULaLa that lost to North Texas and Arkansas State? :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol: That is too funny.....you are the only one that could come up with that line in this thread. Priceless....
BT you know all strength of schedule debates with Dave start with the assumption that if you are not a SEC team that your team would lose at least 3 games if they had to play a SEC schedule, next you make up bogus arguments and fantasy stats to show that is true. I'm sure in the past he's made the point that a B12 type spread team wouldn't cut it in the SEC....ummmm Texas A&M players were recruited and coached to play in the B12 and a Spread-a-holic coach from CUSA seemed to disprove that.
It would be if I chose to post the won-loss record of the Buckeyes opponents. So.... you find it more significant to finishing 12-0 to examine the competition on the bottom of your schedule or is the quality of your best competition more important to your chances of losing a game or two? Logic would indicate that you have a much better chance of blemishing your perfect record if you play several teams with 10 wins or more instead of several with 8-4 or 7-5 records. What do you think?
Not at all....what could possibly be more significant than having a perfect record????? Last time I checked, there were only two of us! Congrats to my Irish friends on a perfect regular season...it's very hard to do better than to win all your games.....no matter how hard some people work to minimize your accomplishments!
What do you mean OSU Dave? 12-0 OSU soundly thumped the Legends Div Champ this year. That's a very noticeable feat worthy of 6-7 wins in the SEC. Yeah, told him huh?
Nice dodge of my question BT. You brought the issue up I remind. All I will say about Ohio State's season is nice job and leave it at that. Unless you want to continue to take jabs at Florida's schedule in which case I'll roll up the sleeves and take a closer examination of Ohio State's schedule. Your choice.
Where do you get this stuff? Seriously..... Is there some alternative universe that you inhabit and then suddenly materialize on here to spew forth absolute nonsense? I can find no other explanation for your ongoing disassociation with reality.....it is just bizarre.
Dave, chill dude. You are as irate as if you went 5 and 7 this year. Be happy that you had a great season and don't belittle the only two programs that went undefeated.
WELL I'M NOT GOING TO CHILL UNTIL SOMEBODY REALIZES THE HUGE IMPACT OF OSU BEATING THE LEGENDS DIVISION CHAMPION THIS YEAR....I'll wait patiently for a professional response....thank you. :lol:
I will go on record as saying that the OL and running game of OSU's would do very well against any of the top 5 teams....and their front 4 DL ain't to shabby either.
Thanks Husker, a little off topic here, but not entirely.....beat the hell outta the fat boy..... looking forward to seeing the Huskers in the Rose Bowl!
Dave's on a mission to convince us all that we would be 3 loss teams if we had to play UF's schedule. Even Alabama would be a 3 loss team vs the UF schedule. That lucky win vs Oooh La La at home, well they are a very underated team and would beat your team if you had to play them!
BT that was your entry into this discussion and I merely ask is it more difficult to beat the bottom of your schedule or the top half of your schedule.....especially when the top 6 of that schedule has 59 wins between them? Tom.....it's obvious that when it comes to UF's schedule these guys can't accept the difficulty of going 12-0 against it and yes....that does irritate. The top 6 teams on ND's schedule won 51 games and Ohio State's top 6 won 48 and that includes UCF's 9 wins. UF's top 6 won 59 games by comparison and yet.....these guys find it necessary to take shots at Florida's schedule. I am not saying by any means that Florida is better than ND or OSU I am just saying that when you look at the schedules it was pretty damned difficult going 12-0 against the schedule UF faced this year.
In truth TOK, I was just questioning his methodology in the comparison of ND's schedule with that of UF. He was giving the victories by UF's FCS opponents equal weighting as if their records had been earned against FBS opponents......just seemed a little unreasonable in my view......and then of course began the predictable Ohio State tirade...... :roll: I stand by my alternate universe theory.....it is the only thing that seems to fit
BT I don't think you had a chance to read my last post. Read it and still tell me how the top teams on the schedule have nothing to do with winning all of your games.
In that regard, my view is very simple. Being 12-0 is very difficult anywhere, anytime.....it is a record that should be admired and celebrated because you can truly achieve no greater than to prevail in each and every contest. Everything else is a sideshow.....the obsessive need to diminish the accomplishments of other programs is extraordinary. I just don't get it.... Would Bama/UF win all its games against ND's schedule? I dunno, nor does anybody else..... Would Bama/UF win all its games against Bama/UF's schedule? No, that is a fact.... Would ND win all its games against Bama/UF's schedule? I dunno, nor does anybody else.... Would ND win all its games against ND's schedule? Yes, that is a fact and at the end of the day, that is all that matters.......
Sad thing is that nobody has really attacked the UF schedule, Kes did an analysis and UF's schedule came out very well one of the top ones, there are computers out there that have UF's schedule as #1. Gators played a tough schedule no doubt, beyond that it doesn't really matter as we can only speculate what UF might have done against some other teams schedule, as you pointed out. As usual Dave see's boogeymen everywhere when the Gators are discussed.
