re: Jimmy Ott “Coach O will get his contract extension”

7-2 against the toughest schedule in the country to date. He has exceeded expectations. Contract extension is a no-brainer.

---

This is not the toughest schedule. It was one of the toughest preseason but multiple teams expected to be above average are average.

People nes to stop with this shite including stating three top 10 wins. Miami and Auburn are dogshit.

I wouldn't put it past Alleva to fear USC will fire Helton and come after Orgeron.

And considering USC's hires over the last decade, they might be dumb enough to do it.

---

You beat me to it. I'm out in SoCal and I hear people talk about O all the time.

Whats happening in December?

extension for what?

---

To be fair, we are a top 10 team and should be favored to win out. Eleven win season might be reached. Sugar bowl is possible if things fall right. I can see JA pushing for it.


After that shite show last night I would enjoy me some sugar.

If O gets an extension we are absolutely F'ed like Auburn is with the Gus Bus.

---

We have been absolutely F'ed since the last extension they gave Les Miles.

frick that noise

I can't wait until his name gets mentioned in connection with the USC job and Alleva comes sprinting down the hall with another 15 year contract.

If those things come to pass, end the year 11-2 and sign a great recruiting class, then he deserves a bonus NOT a contract extension.

Interested in seeing who you think has a tougher schedule. By my metric, LSU's SOS is #1.

Compile opponents' combined winning % (give all FCS opponents 0 wins and the maximum number of losses by a FBS team to date--9, currently). Compile opponents' opponents' combined winning %, and disregard FCS opponents. After proportioning each set to a 1.000/.000 curve, apply the golden ratio between the two (that is, multiply opponents' winning % by ~.618 and opponents' opponents' winning % by ~.381).

Here are the SOS results.
