After LSU beats UGA and OSU beats Wisconsin this Saturday, LSU will be #1 on Sunday. Keep your offensive and defensive stats to yourself.

The ones that matter will be victories over 4 top 10 teams (UGA, Bama, UF, & Auburn).

OSU’s victories won’t compare.

Now that you have stated your precious opinion and unpacked stats, the world of sports has now shifted.

Also, GTFOH.

(That means get the frick outta here, in case you were not aware)

Lol. It's like you idiots have no comprehension of the schedule they played, or lack of it. When lsu beats ga sat, you line up our top 4 wins, ga, bama, auburn, fl, against their top 4 wins....Wisconsin, Minn, Penn St, Michigan. The sec teams would likely be double digits favorites in all four games.


Year after year the sec largely comes out ahead in our mutual bowl games and it typically is a favorable matchup due the big ten.

The big ten rankings are so propped up in order to prop up Ohio state

What about the %deviation from their opponents season statistical average, not including the game that they played in? Can you figure that out for me?


The opponents' opponents' win percentage independent of the team's opponents is:


LSU 59.7%
Ohio St 56.5%

Now adjust for ranking of opponents...

I don’t care that FAU is 9-3, or that Cincy is 10-2...together they beat 19 shitty teams.

Id bet Georgia Southern and Northwestern State could beat Maryland and Rutgers this year with their 3rd string womens volleyball teams.

You’re ridiculous. Big 10 is no where near the SEC.

Comparing best five wins...using AP poll (since Playoff rankings aren’t out this week yet)

#7 Florida (10-2) vs #10 Wisconsin (10-2)
@ #9 Bama (10-2) vs #12 Penn State (10-2)
#11 Auburn (9-3) vs @ #17 Michigan (9-3)
@Texas (7-5) vs #21 Cincinnati (10-2)
A&M (7-5) vs Michigan State (6-6)

Ignoring the fact that the AP only dropped Cincy two spots for losing to a mid-major...

I would take every team on the left against the corresponding team on the right.

My left hand is in a boiling pot of water. My right hand is encased in a block of ice and bordering on frostbite. Statistically my average body temperature is comfortable.

Alabama would beat any of the teams OSU has beaten, very badly...

what were you trying to say?

Florida would likely beat PSU

Auburn would beat Michigan

“For Christ sake. What the hell would short sided even mean?”

—————-

Running an option play towards the closest sideline is both short sided and short sighted.
