No, I posted tangible metrics. FCS is way, way down this year, with the exception of NDSU. It's them and a bunch of ritards.kalm wrote:Because your strongest argument has very little to do with tangible metrics and much to do with opinion.93henfan wrote:Why edit what I said? It's the truth.

Put yourself in the middle of any FCS locker room and say that same shit. We'll see who the "ritard" is afterward.
Yeah, I make a habit of starting fights with 80 guys at a time.
By the way, I paid for my own degrees.

You posted Sagarin stats that Gilby easily refuted.93henfan wrote:No, I posted tangible metrics. FCS is way, way down this year, with the exception of NDSU. It's them and a bunch of ritards.kalm wrote:

To quote our friend, Mr. 89hen, when it comes to computers, "garbage in, garbage out". You got nothing other than eyeballs. NOTHING!!!
Re: 2R - Nicholls @ (3) EWU
Gil didn't refute anything I presented. In fact, he hurt your argument with junk statistics.
Sagarin is the only statistical measurement I know of that connects every game played in a given year and has decades of statistics. Let me know what system you have that's better and we'll use it.
I really hate beating up on you and Gil so badly. I've met you both briefly and you seemed like decent guys, but you're way out of your league. FCS, other than NDSU, is terrible this year and you, I would hope, know it.
I understand having message board fun, but at some point you have to acknowledge the obvious, accept defeat, and rebuild your credibility.

(Massey has archives too. I don't know about the every game connection though. I do know that Massey is better than Sagarin these days.)

Re: 2R - Nicholls @ (3) EWU
I didn't watch it but I was disappointed that Nicholls State had those two big things happen to take them out of a shot. I'm talking about the blocked FG for a EWU TD and a 95 yard interception return EWU TD.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Hey John, we invited a group of cajuns up to tailgate. One of them owns a catering company in Thibodeaux and cooked up some authentic etouffee, gumbo, and boudin. Great stuff and great peeps. They want me to fly down next spring and go golfing and fishing with them.JohnStOnge wrote:I didn't watch it but I was disappointed that Nicholls State had those two big things happen to take them out of a shot.

Re: 2R - Nicholls @ (3) EWU
If you do it it should be interesting. Cross your fingers that they are among the many that live in that area that know what they're doing when they are fishing. Tell them you want to catch redfish on a flyrod and see if they can help you out. If they can't help you out because they don't know much about fly fishing there is still a really good chance they can put you on fish with spinning rods. They live in an absolutely outstanding inshore saltwater fishing area.kalm wrote:Hey John, we invited a group of cajuns up to tailgate.

NDSU should win the championship game by 14+ right..?

Re: 2R - Nicholls @ (3) EWU
We were using the same junk statistics, and we proved 2014 was maybe the best year of the 2000's. Better than the best 5 from your list. Just go have a cow now.93henfan wrote:Gil didn't refute anything I presented. In fact, he hurt your argument with junk statistics.
