Post Your Big 10 Retard Thoughts Here

No, because they didn't. That fsu team was legitimately great. The Athletic had them as the 8th best team of the last 50 years. ESPN had them as the 29th best team of all-time. They had the 3rd highest efficiency rating since 2005(when it began being tracked). They rank number ONE in MOV and YPP differential for title champions over the last 50 years. They avg 51.6 ppg. Their only close game was the title game.
Great huh? These are the ranked teams that they played
#25 MD who finished 7-6 (Not Ranked)
#3 Clemson who finished 11-2 (#8)
#7 Miami who finished 9-4 (Not Ranked)
#20 Duke who finished 10-4 (#23)

Oh yeah they were terrific against bad teams outside the Clemsoning era of Clemson.

Avg MOV against ranked teams was 26.

No doubt they had a bad schedule, maybe you aren't smart enough to separate strength of schedule vs strength of team?

You said if there was a CFP that year, they would have been beaten. I'm trying to figure out who's beating them between Alabama(if they were selected, which I doubt) or Stanford or Michigan State? Lmao.
 
1. Trump made it worse. If the concern was college presidents with a political agenda it probably made some more likely to say fuck it the season is off despite other conferences showing they could make it work. From a political standpoint it's interesting he stepped into a conference in the midwest but stayed away from the west coast. He tried to make it political but teams are playing in spite of him, not because of him. They saw other conferences pull it off and were getting dragged in recruiting. That's why they are playing now.

2. Nebraska is fucked. They tried to pull rank on the conference and were told to sit down. They are going to wish the refs call their conference games as close as Iowa State gets it against Texas.

3. Cold weather will be fine. I've seen a ton of Big 12 games where everyone is freezing their ass off. It's a fall sport and it gets cold in the midwest. No biggie there.

4. I reserve the right to call out data points when a 7-0 Ohio State gets in over a 10-1 Oklahoma State. They made the mistake of starting the season late and must deal with the consequences.

yup, and they had a combined 18 players drafted in 2014 + 2015

they beat #8 Clemson by 37 points in Death Valley

while i was looking that up, I noticed Miami had 9 players drafted in 2017. jesus, nobody has underachieved like Miami since 2005.

They were weak and lucky to beat AU in the championship who were offensively challenged as well.

LMAO at great.. the ou teams that have lost in the CFP would run roughshot over that noles team..

Anyways @Wild Turkey Please make an ACC retard thoughts thread for great takes about how 2013 FSU was awesome..

LOL what a weak grasp at straws.. CLemson was full on CLEMSONING and Miami was a good win because they had 7 draft picks?!? LOL quit acting like they were the 2001 canes.. FSU was one of the WEAKEST BCS champs ever.

and my thoughts about Miami having 9 draft picks in 2017 was completely independent of my thoughts on their 2013 team. hence the "has anyone underachieved more than they have" comment.

did you really think i was propping up 2013 Miami, because guys that were either true freshmen or not even enrolled in the school yet got drafted in 2017?

try to be less retarded in the future. thanks

You pretty much have been wrong about everything here. Wow. Auburn was a top 10 offense that season, it was their defense that wasn't great.

Lmao at the OU teams being better than that fsu team. Holy shit.

2013 FSU:
Sagarin: 101.90

Starting with OU's 2015 team
Sagarin: 91.50, 94.31, 90.99, 93.37

None of them even come close to that fsu team.

I'm trying to figure out how OU would stop the 2nd best offense from a national champion in the last 50 years?

LOL ou would have had an even higher score if they played in the ACC that season.. That FSU offense wouldn't be able to keep up.. in fact how many air raid teams did they even play??

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess the 2nd best national champion offense of the last 50 years is going to be able to score on defenses that were ranked 58th, 92nd and 44th in the last 3 years respectively. Lmao.
 
All we need now in this thread is a "in two weeks all of college football will be done" discussion and we can close this puppy.
 
Sounds like an @OlyDuck thread.
Going to go Capt Obvious on ya but back in August when all the announcements were made with the PAC and BIG forgoing football, a couple of the tOSU fans were passionate in terms of this happening. For more details on weather, sports and AG coming out - check back at 11 o'clock tonight.
