KUGRDON Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 What surprises you about this list? I’m surprised Georgia is on it at all. I’m surprised Nebraska is number one and By such a wide margin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoastFan Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 The metric makes no sense. In the 1960's, college teams were playing ten game seasons, and there were far fewer bowl games. So 9+ wins really meant something. By the mid-1970's, teams had eleven game seasons and there were a few more bowl games. There were twelve games in the 1980's, and by the 1990's, thirteen for teams playing in their conference championship or having a game in Hawaii ... and we were moving toward the current total of 40 bowl games. You can't compare nine wins in the 1960's to nine wins today. At a minimum back then you would have had to show a 9-2 record after a bowl. Today the record could be 9-4 or even 9-5. this is the same bad logic that talks about 20-win basketball seasons, comparing years when teams played only 25 games with now, when there are more than 30.

Scscsc89 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Once you realize Nebraska had exactly 9 wins in 2016, 2014, 2013, 2011, 2008 & 2006 it makes it a lot less confusing why they picked that metric. Same reason they picked 1962, I suspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KUGRDON Posted February 8, 2018 Author Share Posted February 8, 2018 Purdue lost to Ohio State, Villanova lost to Saint Johns, Virginia beat Syracuse and Florida State. If Virginia beats Virginia tech on Saturday they move to number one. A really unexpected turn of events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 the only weird thing there is st. john's -- they lost their first 11 big east games, then knocked off duke saturday and went into nova and beat them last night. quite the mid-season turnaround.

glduck Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 texas tech, the #7 team in the county, is going to narrowly defeat oklahoma, the #23 team, at home. the tech crowd is chanting “overrated” at a team they squeaked by, and is ranked lower than they are. thats not how that chant is supposed to work, is it?
