You do know that strength or weakness of schedule changes in season as the teams you have scheduled perform or under perform, right?

Of course I do.

Plus, I would argue that the Aggies are somewhere in the middle of the conference as far as the difficulty of the schedule is concerned at the point.

What 7-8 teams would you argue have an easier schedule?

If we'd cut out the false start penalties on offense, the numbers wouldn't look quite so bad.

Were there some bad calls Saturday? Sure, there are in every game. The hold on the punt return was a bad call, and I still don't understand how you can be called for roughing the passer when an offensive lineman uses two hands to push you into the QB. But, that stuff will usually even out over time. You have to control the stuff that you can control, and not spend your time worrying about the rest.

The scary thing is that we’re getting so many false starts AT HOME.

I get there is a need to cut out pre-snap penalties. Fair.

Teams that get called for holding often are grabbing a lot because they are getting pushed around. Not ticky tack stuff.

And Holding on running plays or special teams is not called evenly across the board. That’s just a fact.

So this whole narrative feeds itself if you don’t have any judgement on what the refs are calling.

Elko has repeatedly said they have refs out at practice. They actually work on this stuff.

I’m not doing that. It’s completely speculative because we aren't even half way through the season. See my first point about how you analyze a schedules strength you petulant child.

You said you could argue that though. So are you dumb or just a liar?

It's impossible to know who played the easiest schedule until the season is over.

Texas is favored over OU at a neutral site, yet you are calling them "one of the worst 8 teams in the league."

Maybe they are, but we don't know that yet.

No, that just makes you a dumbass.

You don’t have this kind of money involved without schemes to protect and enhance the flow. It’s never about who wins. It’s about asses in seats and TV contracts.
