So would you rank Texas ahead of both Alabama and Tennessee?
There is not a single credible argument why Tennessee should be ranked behind Alabama on Tuesday. If they are, throw out the ranking. They have the exact same record. Tennessee beat Kentucky (Alabama’s best win) by the exact same margin as Alabama did, and Tennessee didn’t trail deep into the third quarter.
If Alabama’s win over MSU is a good win, Tennessee’s win over Auburn (who beat Georgia) is a better win.
FSU and Ga Tech are 3-5 and 2-6.
In Alabama’s two losses, they played two ranked teams and lost by a total of 19 points (once at home and once on the road).
In Tennessee’s two losses, they played two ranked teams and lost by a total of 6 points (once at home and once on the road).
Most importantly, the defining data point, by far, when comparing these two teams is the football game played in Neyland Stadium three weeks ago where Tennessee beat Alabama senseless.
Amen brother. Headed to a mediation next week and been practicing my new response to that always used argument.
I was there. That was brutal.
It's 1988 at @UTAustin and you're at Memorial Stadium to see @TexasFootball vs @UHCougarFB's 'Run-and-Shoot' offense🏈(38 years ago today!) #HookEm @fox7austin
Moral of that story?
PUNT THE FOOTBALL ON FOURTH DOWN!!
Amen
I disagree with Greg Abbott on most things, but I am very grateful that he went on TV at 10pm last night, before any major news outlet called the race, and graciously conceded the Governorship to Gina Hinojosa.
The peaceful transfer of power has been so tenuous these past six years and we shouldn’t take it for granted.
Because he was down inbounds and it was a first down so clock stops temporarily. How Cignetti didn’t know to call timeout is malpractice. But all is forgotten. IU won.
Here’s the play at the end of Indiana-Minnesota game. 13 seconds stayed on clock forever @ESPNCFB @KirkHerbstreit @GopherFootball someone please explain. I literally watch a lot of football and I don’t know what I’m missing
That’s exactly the point. Every play in the NFL is a “small sample size.” Who is playing left guard on any particular two point play is a “small sample size.” I get the math when every deck has the same 52 cards and every die has six sides. Football doesn’t work like that.
