That’s not a bad road slate. Road games are never easy, but those are very manageable

Agreed. The counting of every ~56% chance as a 100% win is also flawed.

Not really. It’s fairly straightforward math.

I’m shocked that people are comfortable enough with these game-by-game FPI predictions to base optimistic season predictions on them, while arguing strongly against someone taking the FPI predictions at face value and calculating what they actually suggest for the season.

My dad hung Vince Lombardi’s “What it takes to be number 1” on my bedroom wall as a kid. Honestly, I read it so much (because it was forever hanging on my wall) that I can honestly say it shaped how I thought in a good way.

Admittedly, it doesn’t hurt that my dad valued the message and I valued my dad…so it was biased to stick.

A football championship

Yeah…it would be pretty great to see us sweep everything else. We’ll win more football championships

Having spent over 2 decades now in positions of increasing organizational leadership, I can tell you that there are many books by coaches that have some great insights on how to lead effectively and manage organizations.

You don’t become successful by accident—in any field—and even coaches you don’t admire overall still have things they do very well.

Pretty sure when Lou Holtz was scratching out his high school homework on a chalkboard by candlelight, his only options would have been boxing and horse racing.

Football didn’t start until post-Civil War.

Pretty sure he meant 11-point hole and not having enough to get all the way back

Honestly, I can’t wait until the starters are Richard, Fulwiley, Hines, Knox, and a talented transfer center.
