You could have saved me and everyone a lot of time. Next Monday I will just ask you what the GOTW is and we can have one choice. C'mon Kalm, I'm not saying that choosing SUU/PSU is a bad choice, but to say it's not close...kalm wrote:Bitch, please.

The next best choice is Chatty and Citadel:
The Big Sky is 3 points ahead of the Southern in Sagarin.
SUU and PSU are both ranked ahead of the other two in the AGS poll (best poll out there).
Combined records are better.
Quality wins are better.
The only justification is name recognition aka EC(b) aka EC(homerism).

Name one reason other than affinity to chose UTC - Cit. Some weeks the choice is obvious. Don't take it personally.89Hen wrote:You could have saved me and everyone a lot of time.

And I sure do miss the AGS method of polls where you could choose to show who voted for which. I GUARANTEE that most of the voters vote the homer choice most weeks.

Somebody might thing SUU is overrated. They got absolutely DESTROYED by one of the teams in this poll and have beaten absolutely nobody (they don't even play EWU or Montana). Maybe we could do a poll for what SUU's best win is:
5-4 NoCo
5-5 Weber
4-5 MSU
3-6 CP
2-7 SacSt
1-8 UCD
0-10 D2 Brevard

The Citadel @ UTC. That's a literal conference championship game. SUU @ PSU isn't.
