And has that model worked? I really don't see a point in following a model that hasnt worked. You dont need a superstar line-up to win. You also dont need to have a $200 million payroll to win either. Pitching comes first, then you go out and get your hitting. The. Cardinals. Didn't. Have. Great. Pitching. They didnt have great pitching, but their pitching stepped up when it matter the most. Which, in the end, gave them a World Series victory. Are you that dense man? Honestly. HOW ON EARTH DO YOU KNOW WHICH PITCHERS ARE GOING TO STEP UP IN THE POSTSEASON?!?!?! YOU DON'T!!! GET IT? It's not very hard to comprehend. It's a crapshoot. If you can honestly tell me that you thought Jeff Weaver would win 3 games in the 2006 postseason you shouldn't be posting here. You should be in Vegas cashing in on millions because predicting things like that is a talent. I would give you more stats and examples but frankly, I'm hammered right now and it isn't worth my time because if you don't understand at this point, even beating you over the head with a blunt object wouldn't get the job done.

Wow. I went to take a shower with Texas down 24-7 and now it's 24-21.
-
Clutch defense? I dont think there is a such thing. I think I said "clutch hitting". For example: The Cardinals had runners on 2b with 2 outs the whole world series. Their hitters found a way to get that run in. That's clutch hitting. Clutch hitting exists, but the clutch hitter does not. Trying to get those players for your team is a futile task. Get good hitters and hope they do their job when the time comes. Where did I say they exist????? All I said was, "clutch hitting is measured into a teams success." Yes but you don't know which hitters are going to come through. You have to assemble the best team and if they come through in the clutch, then they do and that's great.

TD Texas. 21-7 now.
-
21-0 Texas Tech late in the 1st quarter.
-
Too bad that defense left South Bend with 90 seconds remaining last week.
-
Lou Holtz just picked South Carolina to beat Tennessee.
-
Ha. Didn't think about that. That would be hilarious if it happened.
-
Down goes USC.
-
TD USC. Now they need the 2.
-
These announcers are unbearable. "Maybe they spike the ball here?" Are you kidding me? You don't waste a down. Christ.
-
USC is living on the edge. 256 receiving yards for Smith on the day.
-
WOW. Two amazing catches by Jarrett and Smith on this drive. I think Smith's foot was in on that one.
-
No, you idiot announcer. Incomplete passes are NOT okay for USC right now because they don't get you anywhere. It's all well and good that he can get a freaking play from the sideline but I'm pretty sure he could do that anyway if they completed a pass. Idiot.

9 out of 10 people will tell you that BA is a very important stat. 9 out of 10 people will tell you wins are the best way to evaluate pitchers. 9 out of 10 people will probably tell you Derek Jeter is the key to the New York Yankees offense. Does that make them right?
-
Haha. I heard that as well.
-
Why not? It's the difference between one score and two scores. If you go for one, you're down 9 and that doesn't help you at all because you need a TD and FG. If you go for two and don't get it, you're still down 10 and still need a TD and FG. If you go for it, you're down 8, a TD and a 2pt conversion.

Oklahoma St is now up 34-23 over Nebraska with 7:28 to go.
-
Nothing like playing not to lose, eh?
-
It's the ACC that has screwed me over this year in my pick em league. another conference with way too many mediocre teams. NC State? Va Tech? Florida State? Miami? Too many teams that can play really well or really badly. Clemson, BC, Georgia Tech. The whole conference is bleh. At least the Big XII has Texas.
-
I wouldn't be the least bit surprised.

Potential upsets right now other than USC: Oklahoma St is beating Nebraska 27-23 in the fourth quarter. Miami and Georgia Tech are tied at 16 in the fourth.

TD USC. 33-17.
-
USC has to get a TD here.
