This is so bad, if you were a doctor they would call you Doctor Bad.

all I know is Carolina is 43 points better than Ole Miss in the Swamp and 1 point better than Ohio State against Ken State

This is a meaningful observation which is why they're in the top 25, but you can't leave out the bad.

Carolina underperformed in their 3 losses.

half the reason why I release these ratings each week is because it triggers the people who think they know what they're talking about.

I love it

4 of the top 7 (ND, Miami, Indiana, and Utah) haven't played anyone. Heck, Miami only plays 1 ranked team and that's not for 4 more weeks.

Bama, on the other hand, has exceeded expectations in all their games except last night - they slightly underperformed last night. Georgia just doesn't have the resume yet.


A road win over the team with the better resume AND undefeated doesn't boost you over the team you just beat?

Your model is the dumbest model of all time.

I disagree with Indiana having not played anyone. Northwestern and Nebraska are good teams. You can disagree to your heart's content if you would like, but you would be wrong.

The rest, you are correct - but they have still dominated their schedules.

It is a stretch big time to even call this a model at all

It is a more just wishcasting on the part of the OP

This is not a merit-based ranking, it is a power rating. Do you think it's just comical that Bama would be a 2-point favorite over Georgia on a neutral field?

If so, then you don't know how football works.

You get dumber by the post. These two thing are in direct contradiction with one another.

And again, you keep falling back on "muh vegas would have it this way"

Well Vegas would favor UGA over any team in the country on a neutral field. It looks like the closest would be OSU at UGA -1.5 and Bama second at UGA -2.5.

Your model is retarded and again, just wishcashting on your part.

And again the placement of UGA is like 10th on the lists of problems with it

I don't think it actually is. This is obviously just a troll.

Your team is not as good as you think they are. The eyeball test should tell you that.


Then what does that say about your team at #8?

I get it; that McNeese win was sure impressive.

Let's dick measure, shall we:

Sat, Sep 5 You beat a mediocre Clemson team in ACC
vs Clemson
W51-10 1-0 (0-0) Leavitt 230 Leavitt 113 Watkins Jr. 110

Sat, Sep 12 Cupcake that exposed your TO machine
vs Louisiana Tech

W45-14 2-0 (0-0) Leavitt 344 Jones 66 Green 104
Sat, Sep 19 Lost to their "Super Bowl" in a shootout
@ #8 Ole Miss
L32-24 2-1 (0-1) Leavitt 158 Jones 106 Green 60

Sat, Sep 26 dominated the same team we did, except we did it on their own field
vs $23 Texas A&M
W35-6 3-1 (1-1) Leavitt 312 Jones 63 Harris 163

Sat, Oct 3 Padded your stats against a cupcake
vs McNeese
W63-14 4-1 (1-1) Leavitt 177 Berry 125 Barber Jr. 83

Sat, Oct 10 You either overlooked us, or Kiffin just got out coached. I'll go with the latter.
@ Kentucky
L35-34 OT 4-2 (1-2) Leavitt 275 Jones 56 Jones 84

vs

Youngstown St - cupcake and first game for 1st-year coach trying to figure out what we had.
W
45-13
vs

12
Alabama, we were winning until we ran out of gas late in the 3rd and the wheels came off.
L
45-17
@

9
Texas A&M - see above except we were in their house when we did it.
W
31-21
vs

South Alabama - cupcake that caught us looking ahead
W
45-21
@

South Carolina - tough road win at Columbia
W
35-34
vs

10
LSU - you saw what we did.
W
35-34

UK has been more battle-tested and tried to hand you the game last night but our coach out Lane Kiffined your Lane Kiffin and you thought you were going to walk in and run up the score. Sorry the logic is bullshite.

ND, Miami, and Utah have outperformed themselves in almost all games. Georgia has outperformed themselves in less games... does this makes sense?

Georgia is still at the top. These are marginal differences we're talking about. But you aren't capable of understanding that.

It isn't a power rating either.

I dont think you know what you are doing at all.

Best to stay silent and be thought a fool than to post that and remove all doubt.

Name me quality wins with their SOS? It's easy to be ranked near the top when you play shite schools.

Your fan bias is showing. Accept the fact that you overspent for your team, your team is overrated, and you are retarded.

You'd think I was arguing with a damn Biden voter or something. Get a clue.

Indiana and Notre Dame are too high. Texas about where they should be, 9 or 10

Yet, my results are similar to ESPN's. So maybe it's YOU who doesn't understand what this list means or how it works.

What does "quality" have to do with anything? Again, you don't understand how this works. ND has beaten teams by MORE THAN the model thought they would beat them by. "Quality" means nothing to a power rating model.

You don't understand how this works. Your team isn't as good as you think they are and you have the right to be mad about it all you want.
