I interned at UF with the strength and conditioning dept and remember hearing Urban's speech to a HS camp about Florida always aiming to be the fastest team in America.

I also remember Spikes going MIA because he had a random drug test come up not the same year, but I remember him getting away with that and thinking only UF could just make up some shite about a kid having family trouble when everyone else knows that it's because he was trying to get clean piss

07 LSU didn't rape anybody. They lost two games to terrible teams and had several close calls with other average teams.

Similar to

2014
7. Georgia - 27.6%
10. Georgia Tech - 25.8%


Tech has 3 more losses than UGA and played a similar schedule?

It's not similar at all you mouth breathing redneck donkey.

Because they had 2 teams that played a game to the wire almost statistically even?

Some teams are really efficient and gaudy stat wise, yet find ways to lose games. The 2010 Alabama team did that @ LSU and vs Auburn.

The metrics even understand Bama was cheated by the refs in 2013.

The winner would've been the team with the most players left standing instead of the one scoring the most points.

2010 Auburn played a bunch of close games against medicore teams, outscored a bunch of people and generally didn't play very efficiently (and played poorly on defense). They found ways to win all their games and won the title. It just doesn't make them stack up well in statistical comparisons to other teams. Florida State could do the same thing this year, their metric rankings will still be pretty low even if they win out. Somehow I doubt they'll care.

Anything else inbred?

they beat #9 Virginia Tech 48-7

that's the only 'rape'

but they beat 5 other ranked teams throughout the season

and yall act like UK was same ole UK that year. They were 17th in the nation when they beat LSU and Andre Woodson was a potential Heisman candidate at the time.

This is purely stats and not wins and losses.

Bamas 2011 defense was so good ( 37.1) they would be top 10 by themselves.

The SEC West in 2010 was the best division in college football history.

My whole point is these kind of "rankings" were actually a part of determining a champion in college football for a long time. The same rankings that can place a team ahead of another team when they had 3 more losses 4 less wins and lost at home head to head.

It's beyond comical.
