Guys, guys!

Usually it's Donovan off on a wild fantasy, but now even Spence!

Too much time on Congrove (the fantasy board). I would love to know his algorithm...how many points he deducts if you are a BCS team.

No wonder the non BCS boys love CCR...he has Boise, TCU, and Utah as one, two, four....and Auburn at #7. If his algorithmn involves the odds of running the table, he may be right on. If his algorithmn purports to measure wins/losses against a "win value"...I don't get it.

Utah's big win was over 4-3 Pitt in overtime (The same Pitt Miami throttled31-3). What kind of algorithmn would put an undefeated Utah over an undefeated Auburn?

I can't figure what Utah has shown vs Auburn to warrant that.

What kind of "System" would you run with her? :wink:



It is a personal system, but lots of fun to run. :wink:

Relys heavily on the quick and outs. Time of possession is usually short.

I don't watch that much TV, but this was on one night and I became a fan. ----not quite sure what it is about yet, but it has Al Bundy in it. :lol:

Don't care what the SOS is. It's still brutally difficult to go undefeated.
The preceding statements are solely the opinion of GoBoilers and are, therefore, probably not based whatsoever on fact, research or more time in thought than what was required to physically type them. They're probably correct anyway, so you shouldn't argue too much, because otherwise he'll just blather on forever. On the internet Al Gore invented.

...and how do we get sucked into this "body of work" baloney. It is a football game. As Holtz says,...you only have to be the best team on the field, not in the country.

You have to be the best on the field if you are playing a game. Lou would know, if anyone in all of college football has exploited the system it was Notre Dame.

That is true for one game. Like Purdue upsetting Ohio State last year.

But for a national title, you really should be the best in the country...or as near as we can get to that based on empiracle data.

They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

Probably true, however, not giving a darn about a National Title....I am going to Pacific Lutheran play Lewis and Clark this Saturday.... There are some grandkids in the mix.....they think I will hang around and take them trick or treating. Even my grandkids are deceived.

My middle one has a team in the finals of her soccer league. We are doing that before trick or treating. Silly kids don't understand that winning doesn't mean you won. :lol: She can't beat her sisters team (she is four years older), But her team is twice as good as her older sister's team at that age. She is an extreme competitor, she hasn't quite mastered how to lose yet. :lol:
