    College Football Thread

    For computer-rating geeks like myself, there are a few systems out there that rank teams by "strength of record" or "resume," and I produce some myself. Every one that's updated so far, including mine, has Washington #1 and Michigan #2. After that, it's crapshoot. I have Texas #3 and Alabama #4. ESPN has Florida State #3 and Alabama #4. Anderson-Hester has Florida State #3 and Ohio State #4. Colley Matrix , like mine, has Texas #3 and Alabama #4. I guess the bottom line is, the committee has a tough job on its hands.

    Agree with this. I'm not sure it's ever been really clear, either with the football or basketball selection committees, what they mean by the "best" teams. I've noticed in interviews when they are asked how they determined how one team is better than another, they actually go right back to comparing resumes.

    Maryland vs Indiana - Game Thread, Fri., 12/1 @ 7 BTN

    The bad news is it’s still factoring in the pre-season ratings. Their NET ranking would be significantly worse than 69.

    Coach Curt Cignetti to INDIANA

    What he said is exactly why we hired him. He was playing to the crowd, cultivating interest in the program, and developing our new brand (“we’re not backing down from anyone”). It was as brilliant a use of 45 seconds as you’ll ever see.

    No limit to how good we can be.

    lol….Allen and Hiller bickering….around middle 4th quarter, it was obvious Tuttle was told he was going into the game. Penix looked like he was hurt and couldn’t escape the pass rush. Tuttle put his helmet on and came over and talked to the OL (sitting right in front of us) and talked to the other offensive players. But when IU got the ball back, Penix went back out on the field. Tuttle just stood there with a stunned look on his face. Nobody even came to talk to him that I saw. Told my son right then Tuttle won’t be here much longer.

    Was at that game with my son, in the front row right behind the Indiana bench. Saw a lot of telling things happen on the sideline in the second half of that game. And I agree, that’s when it all came crashing down.

    Check his resume closer. He's more like flavor of the decade.

    It’s a passing offense. His OC is Mike Shanahan. I’m assuming he’s the son of the NFL coach but don’t know for sure.

    List your experience hiring Athletic Directors.

    Coach Curt Cignetti to INDIANA

    Going by your theory, Dolson knows a hell of lot better than you who to hire. After all, he has experience as an Athletic Director.

    Who knows, maybe he’s a candidate to get his old job back, lol.

    No doubt he inherited a mess. Still, in his 5 years before he hired Tom Allen, he was 8-32 in the Big 10. The first bowl game he went to, we were 2-6 in the Big 10.
