I know it's cool to hate a show as critically acclaimed and popular as 24, but Season 5 was generally loved on this board and elsewhere, when it...
Not necessarily. It's far, far from a given that OU wins in Stillwater. The Cowboys have a very good squad.
For those in this thread who don't know me, I just moved back to Houston a couple of weeks ago, so count me in for some games in the near future...
I'm in the minority of preferring the BCS to an eight-team playoff. But my ideal is a four-team playoff, aka the "plus one" model. I think that's...
Actually, the Texans had a QB who went 4-1 in games started in 2007. His name is Sage Rosenfels. He must be a stud, huh?
It still makes no sense and is inconsistent. There are two schools of thought. Either judge the teams by merit, or judge them by the eyeball test....
The strength of schedule will essentially be a wash. It'll come down to voters, who will see similar brand teams with nearly identical schedules...
whoops, double post. my bad.
I don't have a vested interest in this game, but I kind of want OU to win so I can laugh at all the people who somehow have convinced themselves...
Evidence, please.
Completely agreed that that's how it works in reality -- I'm just venting because it doesn't make a lot of logical sense. With that said, this is...
Major, I totally get that. As I said, I would respect that kind of voting if it were applied consistently. But I haven't seen a single analyst on...
So it's OK to use overall resume when comparing Florida and Alabama, but not when comparing Florida and Texas? Yes, it is a joke. Losses...
I'm not sure if you're talking about me or jason or whoever, but what does the fact that the team proceeds to "fail after all" have to do with...
If Florida and Alabama played next week on a neutral field, Florida would be favored. So why not put Florida ahead of Alabama?
It's the inconsistency that bothers me, on the part of voters. The factors you listed are very legitimate. (Although I think each of the three Big...
If they beat Alabama, it's not. Until then, it is definitely ridiculous. UT lost on the last play of the game to the No. 2 team in the country, on...
Again, as predicted, a huge, gigantic increase for UT in the Harris... they were up 44 points last week... this week, they're up 101, for a net...
And it continues, as many of us predicted. After gaining 49 points last week, Texas picks up 31 more this week and passes OU. Again, it's...
Um, what's wrong with that? We're fans, dude, and this is a sports message board. Speculation is part of it. Also, how can you have to "eat your...
