re: The Challenge: War of the Worlds 2 - JB Bama on 12/5/19 at 1:43 pm They should have had an equalizer where there was an advantage to having more players. One year they had to dig out a chest and with more players it was much easier for one team. Something like that.
Team US got rid of Wes, Johnny and Jordan so their only Alpha left was Paulie. I can't imagine ... Posted on Movie/TV Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |

re: Debunking some Playoff Metrics - JB Bama on 12/4/19 at 2:09 pm I think a good rule of thumb is it takes 2 good wins to cancel out a bad loss, I wish the committee would basically acknowledge this as a standard.
If you lose to an unranked team it should basically be 1.5 losses. A win over a top 10 team is 1.5 wins.
Georgia has a big fat ugly loss but they... Posted on More Sports Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: Debunking some Playoff Metrics - JB Bama on 12/4/19 at 2:02 pm Yeah I don't think you can objectively state that. Penn State has a solid resume.
*If LSU beats Georgia, it is obvious LSU has the 2 best wins vs. Georgia in the Georgia Dome and @ Bama (with Tua)
Right now without that Georgia win I'm okay with OSU #1.

I think we're on the same page honestly. I think we can all predict what the CFP is going to do because we've seen it in the past, but they are inconsistent.

re: Debunking some Playoff Metrics - JB Bama on 12/4/19 at 1:41 pm Ohio State has a clean sheet with wins over #8 at home in a convincing win, #10 at home with a solid win, and a convincing win at #14 Michigan. The win over Cincinnati is no better than a win over Texas or Texas A&M honestly you would expect any top 10 team to win those games convincingly.

re: Debunking some Playoff Metrics - JB Bama on 12/4/19 at 11:58 am Utah doesn't have any proof that they belong in the top 5. They have a loss outside of the top 20 and their best win is by 5 against an unranked Washington team.
Based on losing to USC and with no quality win to suggest otherwise one would assume they would lose to any of the top 5.

Debunking some Playoff Metrics - JB Bama on 12/4/19 at 11:44 am With only 12 data points we have to be more specific and intentional in how we analyze a win and a loss.
Stop using "top 25 win" or "3 loss team". There's too much range, you can't compare a win over a top 5 with a win over #24.
Texas A&M lost 5 games but they were ALL to top 10 teams. This d... Posted on More Sports Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (12) |
re: Do you expect any fringe juniors back? - JB Bama on 12/3/19 at 4:38 pm I think Mack Wilson is a great example of why you should come back.
He went in the 5th round and he signed 2.8 mil over 4 years.
Christian Miller went 4th round and signed a 3.2 mil contract over 4 years.
Rashaan Evans who went 22nd had a 11.5 mil guaranteed contract over 4 years.

Man I hate to burst your bubble but we didn't win a National Championship in 18 we lost by 28 points.

re: The Challenge: War of the Worlds 2 - JB Bama on 11/19/19 at 1:32 pm There is nothing on the line in the actual challenges so that's problem 1, problem 2 is there's no benefit to winning an elimination.
I think one of my favorite seasons was the Island where the only way to compete for the final was to win an elimination.

The narrative on Oklahoma is they can't compete with an elite team because they have a suspect defense. This was quite obvious against Kansas State, Iowa State, and now Baylor.

Not sure why you are making 40+ picks, and the picks don't seem to follow any logic to them.

No, there's literally no evidence in the history of the draft to suggest he would fall that far.

I'd be shocked if he's not top 10. He's a generational talent, look at what the Bears got out of Trubisky with the 3rd overall pick you think they wouldn't trade their soul for Tua right now?
