  1. The thing about using scoring margins as one of the metrics is you don't always no the circumstances. Team A is winning by 30 with 7 minutes to go and takes all of their starters out. They want to give their young players some work against a bad non conference opponent. Team A only wins by 14. Team B playing the same bad non conference team but keeps their starters in until the end and wins by 40. So Team B gets credit for running up the score against an inferior team and Team A gets marked off for calling off the dogs. All this will lead to is coaches running up scores instead of trying to develop your players and helping your team in the long run
  2. You would probably love BTB because some of them are still delusional thinking we will still make a change. There Fire Mike Woodson thread is up to 790 pages the last time I checked. I still lurk but stopped posting there because it is getting as bad as Peeg's got.
  3. Or that they actually call fouls that Edey commits
  4. Preach it brother. These kinds of things is just making sports less enjoyable. Sports are for entertainment but everyone now has to have every little thing dissected to 1 one millionth. I enjoyed selection Sunday so much more when you were surprised when the selections were revealed. Now every outlet starts their bracketology the day after the season ends.
  5. Yet they probably be a 4 or 5 seed
  6. I guess I will give it a little longer but it looks like once again Ballard is being to passive when it comes to free agency. To me signing your own is good if your team is a playoff team but when you are average at best you are just bring back players who finished .500. It is obvious this philosophy hasn't worked but he is unwilling to change it. This is one thing I don't understand about coaches and GM's is their stubbornness to change what isn't working. The best in the business is able to adapt and change when needed.
  7. In my opinion I think the key to the game is to score more points than Nebraska. If this happens then I think we have a good shot to win.
  8. Is this t true that Auburn has not had 1 quad 1 win all year. I heard someone say that but I found that hard to believe.
  9. The year after UVA lost to a 16 seed, they were a #1 again. They were behind at the half to a 16 seed
  10. It is a shame that the outcome on the court has no bearing on the rating.
  11. My ex wife lives there and her church got destroyed in the storm. There were 3 people trapped in the church
  12. Well if we want to determine everything by computers why play the games, just do simulations to determine the winners. I take the eye test over these stupid rankings any day. The team that will be hurt the most is ISU because a computer thinks a 18-14 power conference team deserves a bid over a 28-5 team.
  13. Don't you love computer geeks getting to determine who the best teams are. They never played the game yet they pick and choose what criteria to put into the formulas to get the rankings. I just don't get a ranking based on scoring margins because I that is about the only difference between us and MSU
  14. I am going in the theory of we have to run it to get in so I want the easiest path to the championship
  15. Fouling up 3 with 5 seconds to go came back to haunt them last night
  16. Everything depends if Galloway can play effectively if at all.
  17. Why do people try to fix something that isn't broken because the NCAA tournament is the best sporting even we have.
  18. 100 teams don't deserve to get in. Look at the bubble teams now and the don't scream tournament teams. Go back to 64 and get rid of the stupid at in games. They just did this to give more mediocre teams from power conferences to get into the tournament.
  19. The conference tournament gives every team a chance to make the tournament
  20. Colts finally signed a free agent from out the organization Rawkoan Davis DT from tbe Dolphins. I am not sure this makes a lot of sense after resigning Stewart. Buckner makes 20 mil, Stewart 13 mil, Davis 7 mil. Seems like a lot for the DT. Was hoping they would sign Danielle Hunter edge Rusher from the Vikings. Saw where the Colts were talking with him but he signed with Texans
  21. Why are you so obsessed with me, it is truly creepy
