re: Statistics: Why LSU will beat Wisconsin: A response to Wisc Trolls

A winning percentage of .800 or better is terrific regardless of what conference Boise State plays in. Of course I can say that because what Boise State has done is a fact. What you are saying is purely theoretical.

What I'm saying is purely theoretical? You yourself admitted/agreed with me that if Boise was in any other conference their win percentage would not be as high...

That is not theoretical, that is fact...

Again...your argument is that Wisconsin has won at a high rate, .702 and we have agreed with that...what myself and others have been arguing and pointing out with stats that win rate has come against lesser competition (SOS) compared to LSU's and that .702 win percentage would be less if Wisconsin played LSU's SOS every year...

Win percentages ARE dictated to a degree with conference affiliation...that is fact...I gave you two other examples with Miami and their early Big East years and Florida States early years with the ACC...their win percentages and success would have been a lot different if they had been in the SEC, Big 10 or Big 12 and had to face quality competition on the same level playing field damn near every week...

Again...conference affiliation does matter...that is not theory...that is fact...
