  1. This is my 3rd to make it up there in the last year or so of writing the game week kickoff posts. It feels wonderful. The fact that these dolts are incapable of appreciating this for what it is and the context behind it makes it even more wonderful. I made it on there for predicting we were going to pants Alabraska last year at their place and also- I believe I had a pretty foul rant against the Red Raiders.
  2. People read my post on message board geniuses and bowed to the inherent logic of it all. Bet now, after @closetojumpingdrops his mudhole post the line will move past a TD.
  3. Meyers was something like 11 Outs above average in 75% of playing time- which is a counting stat. If he's not the best defensive CF in the game he's really close. Bregman seems like he should be a gold glover at some point in time in his career. I don't know if that's true or not, but I feel like I'd like to see it. Yeah- I miss that IF big time. Was such a fun run.
  4. Never saw the inside of a UT classroom or national Merit scholar on full academic ride. One or the other. the fact that that confederacy of dunces is lined up against me just shows I am directly over the target.
  5. So, I was almost put on message board geniuses for the 3rd time but aggy was too dumb to get it right on the link, is that what happened? This is Jacks complete lack of surprise face. too bad- my anti SEC mocking post should be required reading for all the dipshits and morons south of the Mason Dixon line, and Mizzou too I suppose.
  6. No. And read my thread on page 2 of the Georgia gameweek thread to see how I feel about this conference. No kool-aid at all. But, if you don't get that power imbalances between the leagues, and power imbalances inside the leagues in the schedules teams play in an era of 16 team conferences don't make comparing # of losses a dumb proposition as a stand alone I don't know what to tell you. Miami will likely end the year having played 0 ranked teams. Georgia will likely end the year having played 5 top 15 teams, only 1 of them at home. Who the fuck cares if Miami is 12-0 and Georgia is 10-2 in any rational seeding world? Texas, however, has a pretty shitty schedule even though we are SEC SEC SEC and scheduled Michigan. But it's miles better than Miami's. Oregon has a pretty tough schedule. Florida's is absurd. Texas Tech plays 1 ranked team.
  7. Why? with imbalances in conference schedule you could have a 1 loss acc or big 12 team that plays like two top 25 teams all year and an SEC or big 10 team that plays like 7 ranked teams. You telling me you value 11-1 from the first over 10-2 or 9-3 in the second? Why? It makes no empirical sense. If you want to turn it all over to the computers I'm fine with that. Put a 35 point MOV cap on the model- make every team play all their games against D1 - bowl division if they are still calling it that and let them tell you who the best teams are, if you really want to go with some sort of "fairness" test.
  8. You are correct- thanks! Somehow I missed the fact that his total was perfect... @gernblanstenit is you are the winner. @Rudy Rutabagabetter luck next time.
  9. That was really good. I was pretty sure you were going to win, and then I saw the actual winner and was like- damn
  10. @TheAuditorwith an amazeball performance. Nails the spread exactly and misses the total by 1 yard for each team. Congrats to him for winning the prop contest.
  11. All the props within 10 yards- good job
  12. These were the closest to getting the difference in score right between the teams- either nailed the 31 point or missed it by 1. Remember- scoring is 2 points for every number off the spread and one for ever number off the total. @WBTgets the shout out for having the lowest (real) OU score prediction I think with 6. I think @Rudy Rutabagais the winner at 14 points -maybe highest total of the year? If I missed one lower let me know. Running yardage prop next.
  13. Never heard of spoon. 46 year old white guy.
  14. What happened with Kern? He hurt? Or just get beat out?
  15. I have to say I take a little pride in making him snap inside of 24 hours while laid up in bed with strep throat. The funny thing is all the projection. I’m not at all doing what he’s accusing me of and even have 4 counterfactuals that negate the point he says I’m making which is all winners cheat. That’s not it. Cheaters cheat. And under Kirby Smart they were the worst of the worst cheaters. Like Nick Saban but with even less shame. if he’s not Fatwa’d out of here by the end of the day I will be very disappointed in this place.
  16. You are the standard on here. Doesn’t have to be topical.
  17. Thats literally not what I said you room temperature IQ idiot. I even gave you 4 counterpoints to teams that don’t cheat (anymore) including our most hated rival in OU.
  18. Different criteria. But they’d both make it by the way.
  19. Texas 38 Georgia 20 I think this is another name your score game the same way Michigan was that Sark will be content to just get across the finish line/ as we come out early and slice them up before easing off the gas pedal if not quite outright mashing down on the brakes. call it 24-10 at half time and then 14-10 to end it. Since Texas defense is getting all the pub right now- I will go with guess the yards we give up. Georgia- 374 yards. A lot of those come late as does some of the scoring for them. Texas is the class of the NCAA right now and I suspect it will be shown on the field as we win by 3 scores on Saturday.
  20. That’s too bad for him. Guessing ACL? Hope he’s back and ready for his free agent season next year. good luck.
  21. That fact that you didn’t notice I led with “Bama” shows you are an even bigger dipshit than I suspected, and I suspected you were dumber than anyone on here not named@Helobiousalready. Congrats. You may be dumber than him.
  22. I mean/ you say nearly zero but aggy is always capable of self destructing at least 1 out of 3, so there you have it. they were lucky to escape bowling green or Kent state or whatever irrelevant midwestern spare they had on their schedule earlier this year. They could absolutely lose at MSST.
