SOUP OR SALAD?

Gimme an unbiased computer ranking vs human poll any day. I wish the "BCS computers" still existed and we could run those in comparison to what the biased human rankings reveal come the halfway point in the season.

I'd imagine we'd see a lot less SEC/Big 10 teams littered throughout the Top 25.

Yeah, that's probably how i should've worded it.
I was thinking Wake, Vandy and Scar games. Felt like we were very much the better team in the SC game and definitely so in the Wake game. The Vandy and Louisville games we had a chance, but like someone else said, they stopped playing around after halftime. Probably more like 2 winnable games but point still stands, I don't think Franklin will allow any worse

Disagree about one-single-loss-and-you're-done being a good thing, but the rest of your comment was kind of what I was getting at about how different teams have their losses weighted differently. VT and any other ACC schools not named Miami would almost certainly have to run the table to ever get into the playoffs. And anyone not in the SEC has to hear haint played nobody Pawwwwl ad nauseam even if you do win every game going away.

This stuff has bothered me since losing one time to Miami in 2000.

Here's an idea. Just eliminate the entire regular season. You pick the top 12 or 16 teams based upon preseason rankings and then there is no danger of inconclusive season results. The "best" 12 or 16 teams get in. There, full proof!

Regardless of whether he gets that 7th year or not, absolutely ridiculous BTW, they have to rebuild the entire roster around him - OL, RB room, WR room.

Maybe Tony Elliot can strike gold two years in a row. Who knows... But this is the game UVA has decided to play.

Yeah there were other games we had a shot in, but to me "pissed away" means VT was decidedly better and did very stupid things to pull a defeat from the jaws of victory. My "piss away" games of the Pry era would be:

  • 2022: ODU, GT, NCST
  • 2023: probably just Purdue and even that one IDK
  • 2024: Vandy, Rutgers (maybe), Miami, Syracuse

If it makes you feel better, IU rise is a lot like Oregon's - they spent ~$26m on this roster, and paired it with tremendous coaching. Also, despite there 7% bluechip ratio, over 60% of players were acquired through the portal.

Hope it goes through. I would like the chance to beat his ass. Halfway decent team this year and we keep them out of the acc championship and back where the douchebags belong.
