Oh.
Welp, 3rd best is something.
...unless you're 4th or worse, then it don't mean shit. I think that's how it works.
I could say "Big Game Bob" has been in more "big" games as a head coach than any other, short of Saban/Swinney........but detractors will be oh so quick to swoop in and point to how many "big" games he lost so by default I lose because he lost one/some. The ol' semantics death grip.
I could say OU is an elite program that has been to more "games of consequence" but again the detractors will descend/ascend and make false equivalencies blah blah blah.
Come to think of it....I've been dealing with this exact flow chart for foruming for 20+ years. Am I a glutton for routine? Am I stupid? Is the serotonin losing its lustre?
