[quote]Old1937[/quote] lol you are 88 years old and don't want to play the 3 rivals you have played the most in your lifetime, and mostly haven't played in the last 10-20 years? B O L O G N A Must be another JetDawg account.. :casty:...
[quote]If you have 14 teams & 1-4 have byes, that means you have 5 winners of the rest of the teams. Now you have 9 teams to determine a winner. How is that done?[/quote] 14 teams 2 byes 6 games in Round 1 or 16 teams 0 byes 8 games in Round 1 Both are better than 12 teams with 4 by...

[quote]Jokes on you, we usually collapse in October[/quote] Technically, both are true. A&M has lost at least one game in October in 23 of the last 25 seasons A&M has lost at least one game in November in 21 of the last 24 seasons. [u]October Exceptions:[/u] 2024 * tbd 2006 lost 2 games in...
[quote]How’s it any different other than # of teams?[/quote] The bye weeks. By going to 14 teams, you only get 2 byes instead of 4. You also don't get the #5 seed being more valuable than the #1 seed because of those byes....
[quote]#1 seed = CONFERENCE CHAMPION TITLE (can’t say that doesn’t look good in history books)[/quote] Sure. It would be nice to have.. but it isn't worth the risk if a loss would knock me out of the playoffs. Idk how you add value to it at this point though. It's not really any different than ...

1) That team by your name is favored to win the game. 2) That is not your team however. 3) That team by your name lost the last time they played in Columbia, SC. 4) I hope you get a million views with this stupid topic that is already on Page 1 about 15 times.. ...
[quote]As the #2 seed you're more likely to not run into one of the best teams until the championship game and still get the bye.[/quote] Valid argument, and that may prove to be true. I like 14 teams. Top 2 CC = bye Six home games for the other 12 teams. [u]Guaranteed Spots[/u] 1 SEC ...
[quote]There is no debate, 5 seed would be better.[/quote] Easier? No doubt. Better? Arguable. Winning games as the #1 vs the better competition could have benefits from a confidence standpoint.. overcoming adversity.. playing to a standard.. etc One of the ACC or Big 12 Champs, or maybe even...
[b]The 5 seed is arguably better than the 1 seed.[/b] [u]#1 Seed[/u] 12/07 - SEC Championship Game 12/20 - Bye 12/31 - Quarterfinals vs #8 or #9 (likely #2/#3 team in B1G or SEC) 01/10 - Semifinals vs #4, #5 or #12 [u]#5 Seed (assuming you missed the SEC CG)[/u] 12/07 - Bye 12/20 - Home ...
[quote] And, somehow, the Vegas bookmakers have the Aggies as just a 2.5-point favorite over an unranked South Carolina team[/quote] The Sagarin ratings are usually the answer when it comes to strange betting lines.. This doesn't mean that the Sagarin Ratings are right, but if someone is gambling, ...

[quote]Do you remember at the beginning of the game UGA didn’t have comms, stoppage of play, Kirby went to the ref, the ref said we can’t do anything about it? Well technically Texas was supposed to stop using their comms until it was fixed..[/quote] Yeah, I thought it was fixed right away since K...
[quote]Are these overall or in conference only?[/quote] P4 I believe...
[quote]They probably spent the the week prepping for Weigman then after the game Saturday I’d imagine this week is a heavy dose of Reed prep. They’ll be prepared for both options.[/quote] Agreed. They have a pretty good defense, so it should be a pretty good test for your offense. Unless one team h...
[quote]So ABC/SEC won every slot time except the Ole Miss game? Maybe that’s why they don’t get night games[/quote] You can't really compare a game on ESPN to a game on FOX, ABC, CBS, etc. It is rare for an ESPN game to beat the big boys.....

Well I guess we know now why Georgia beat Texas.. it all finally makes sense. Georgia clearly knew what Texas was calling each play. :nana:...
Are you calculating these? Only problem I really see is when a team has to play a really dominant team.. or a really weak team. I showed the Texas defensive stats above.. and they are pretty damn good, but they are actually even better than I showed, because each of those teams has played Texa...

[quote]This can’t be right. The conference was assured by Del Conte that Texas-OU would be the biggest game in the SEC.[/quote] Troll troll troll your boat, gently down the stream.. :casty: Perhaps you should look up the Texas vs Oklahoma ratings before you yell at the clouds next time.. ...
[quote]my personal take on bye weeks is they are only good for rest/healing. if you cant propery prep for an opponent in 5-6 days, then another week probly isnt helping any more[/quote] I agree with you in most cases, but in this specific case, I think it will help SC because they do have time to p...
I don't understand why Texas doesn't have a 1.69 YPP difference though.. It looks like that number is adjusted? Offense = 5.82 Defense = 4.13 Net = 1.69...
