There’s a lot of puppy tears in here. Maybe stop spending so much time being offended, and work on not being so shameful.

I have no problems with LSU being ranked where it is. My issue is with schools like Ole Miss being considered "admirable". They were on probation within the last 4 years and Lane Kiffin is their coach!

And, Texas shouldn't be anywhere close to admirable status with how they have treated members of the Big 12 for decades.

Is there any particular reason why Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss, and Florida are all more “admirable” than UGA considering that they have all been put on probation since the last time UGA was put on probation, and UGA hasn’t had any major academic scandals regarding its players recently, nor do their players perform worse academically compared to those schools? Seems like the vertical axis is totally arbitrary, imo.


Well, Georgia is known to have a big racism problem. They can’t even bother to keep it in check around their five star QB prospects.

An interesting article from this week's (August 28th) The Economist magazine about an Auburn alum, Tim Cook:

Tim Cook is the chief executive of Apple, the world's most valuable firm with a market value of $2.5Trillion. Over 80% of that has been amassed during the tenure of Tim Cook. No other chief executive has created more absolute value for shareholders. He took Steve Job's creation and made it better and bigger.

As Tim Cook celebrated his tenth anniversary as Apple's boss on August 24th, no one made a peep. He has staged what is arguably the greatest succession success in technology. When he took over from Jobs the company had a market value of $434 Billion. Annual sales surged from $108 Billion to $274 Billion last year. Net profit more than doubled to $57 Billion turning Apple into the world's most profitable company. Less widely noticed, during his tenure the "Apple economy" - its own annual revenue plus everything other companies make on its platforms has grown sevenfold to more than $1 Trillion.

Auburn does not receive its due. Too often other schools talk about their football player who can run faster with a football than another team's football player. Big deal. Auburn alums feed the hungry, clothe the naked, house the homeless, heal the sick and make money doing it. War Eagle!!!

If all bama sports were to disappear, the state of Alabama, America and the world would be better off actually.

University 6 (aka Louisville) not being in the lower left corner calls into question the validity of the entire graph. But, fun idea.

LSU certainly has its share of shame, but no other SEC team should be higher on the powerhouse scale other than Alabama. Florida should be just behind LSU and Georgia well left of LSU on the Powerhouse axis.

A&M hasn’t won shite and they’re a powerhouse? Guess beating the worst LSU team in half a century carries a lot of weight.

Horse shite. The horizontal axis isn’t too bad but the fact that anyone in the top half of the P5 is above 0 on the vertical axis is stupid. ESPECIALLY those cheating cousin fricking hicks
