Please give an honest answer on a scale of 0(low) to 10(high).

Sure, people say some outrageous things for shock or trolling, but when you read their serious analysis, they do usually have some valid and logical observations. I would say its about a 7.

5 with different posters falling along all points of the spectrum. It's probably a bell curve.

I think the IQ drops when most people come to this board, you read their posts on other boards and they can come across as sensible and sort of intelligent, but it all goes down the tubes in this smouldering dumpster

Most people on here don't know blocking assignments orvroutr concepts so I'd say 3 or 4

What we think

7


In reality we're probably averaging a 4. Some people give useful, well-thought out analysis. A coach, however, knows far more about the intricacies and details of the game.

There has probably been countless threads on here (including my own) with takes that do not offer a strong enough case to be taken seriously

You're giving too much credit. It's probably closer to 1% / 99%

I think way too many people think whatever they learned from their high school football coach is 100% gospel.

My football IQ regarding LSU is a 10.

After all, I know what a toss dive is.

Zero. And that is a serious answer because your question asks for the "average football IQ" for Tiger Rant. To me, that means the average football IQ demonstrated in the posts appearing on the Rant. And if you add up all the posts made on the Rant and divide by the amount of football IQ shown, you'd get a number way closer to zero than one. Granted, this is mostly due to the same stupid shite from the same jackass posters being spammed 1000s of times for each semi-reasoned, even barely analytical post made by a serious poster. But since that's what the Rant has largely become, I believe the answer is valid.

If you meant to ask the average football IQ possessed by people who post on the Rant, I think it would be closer to about 3.

Lol at the idea of a football IQ

Talk about a oxmoron.

Now if you wanted to confound IQ and soccer, you'd have a point, as that is a much smarter sport.

There are a lot of posters who are extremely knowledgeable. But there are a whole lot who are straight up stupid motherfrickers!

There's always someone posting, "Why do we always play from the I-form?" or "If I can tell what plays we're going to run...?"

So I have to think the mouthbreathers outnumber the pragmatics, and the average IQ is 40.
