  1. Minnesota? Or Northwestern. Losing to Duke is not a good thing. and, sadly, i called that loss
  2. Probably. Blame the system. When you make point differential & strength of schedule count for so much in the rankings, it's really no wonder that fans start taking it into account when talking smack. Until there's a valid playoff system (probably never), such is NCAA Div 1-A football. I really hope that after the regular season/Champ games are over there are 4 undefeated teams. and that after the bowl games there are still 3
  3. Probably. Blame the system.

Until there's a valid playoff system (probably never), such is NCAA Div 1-A football. i'm pretty sure that point differential is out of the computer rankings in the BCS, but it certainly influences the department secretaries who fill out the Coaches Poll ballots
  4. i think if PSU went 12-0, people would still say they're no good because Wisconsin didn't destroy The Citadel and OSU only beat Akron by 18.
  5. playoffs?
  6. yeah, but think how awesome it would be to see soto hit 400/500/700 at AAA for a full season. after a season like that, he'd almost certainly be a lock to be a backup for the major league team. or packaged with Pie and Murton for a 39 year old right fielder
  7. i'm flying to Orlando the day of the PSU/UM game. Hopefully i can catch some of it at the hotel
  8. not for hank :( um, right. cuz lou will keep soto over hank. soto will be lucky to get a pair of playoff tickets
  9. Yes, because the polls are perfect. or because they're all 3-0 (as well as Purdue, Illinois and Indiana, all un-ranked).
  10. they didn't say which month also, no one wants to score today in any game. Every game will be won 12-7
  11. Big 10 has the #8, #9 and #10 team in the country. Damn that conference sucks.
  12. i looked through the mlb.tv archived telecast, but it was the FSN Houston feed and they didn't show him
  13. though is sucked at the time, nothing beats Ronnie's call of Brant Brown dropping the fly ball in Milwaukee
  14. and stats clearly don't tell you any of that. Yes, they do but the math in order to get to the final number is dizzying. lucky for all of us, there are website that do all the math for us
  15. are players' road statistics adjusted the specific parks they are producing those stats in?
  16. ESPN : Hating ND :: Joe Buck : Hating Cubs/Bears the point being, some fans are just hypersensitive to any perceived criticism towards their team, often overstating the actual "bias" against their team
  17. i can't handle many more games like this
  18. i almost just woke up my kids with that play
  19. len is in "rationalizing everything" mode right now YEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
  20. LOU'S MEETING: Hey guys, just came out to say you should've scored more runs. Way to suck
  21. Floyd is still in? Why didn't they replace him in RF? K, plz. short bench. oh, wait
