Yeah, but they don't blow out anyone. Whether it's Vandy or Tennessee or whoever. They are kind of like 2002 Ohio State that way (though not as talented).
I would have said that USC was like the 2k2 OSU until they lost to oregon state

Plus, I think they're going to go into Memorial Coliseum and not only beat USC, but do it handily.
I'm looking forward to that game. USC is still more explosive than ND, though. Weis might believe that it's not smart to try to get in a shootout.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

Arkansas brought out Casey Dick, and boy did he perform. (And give the green light to jokes about a game with two Nutts coaching a team with Dick and Johnson against the Cocks.)
And after the game, a woman from ESPN asks him what he thought while he was on the bench while Mustain struggled to find his passing arm for most of the season - and he has a reply that should make every heart melt. "God has a plan for everyone;" His plan for Casey was to be on the bench then. And Mitch is probably his own hardest critic, in the past after bad performances he has come out and said he sucked, he ought to do better. Consider we also have McFadden, Jones, Monk, Hillis also all sharing the spotlight with no complaints plus a raft of younger up and comers, and this team really looks like a miracle. Every W on the schedule has been entirely from teamwork. There is no stopping us if we can keep it up.
A lot of Arkansans relaxed tonight after finding out we have just as potent a passing game as rushing, and defenses will struggle to stop both.
PS. Mitch Mustain has not lost a game he has started and finished since the eigth grade. Just something to mull around in the ol' noggin.

Why? Because he's dumb enough to think God cares who starts a football game?

are you ranking solely on potential dan?
No, I rank on wins and strength of schedule-to-date mostly.

Undefeated is too highly regarded many times.
Strength of schedule is just as, or more, important.
I'll take a 10-1, maybe even 10-2, team who played contenders every chance instead of unoffical week off games and go "undefeated".

You don't think Texas should be considered for the national title game because they played three "unofficial week off games" (North Texas, Rice, Sam Houston State)?
KH FOR OWNER! ASHER FOR CEO!! GUYNEMER FOR OT MOD!!!
plays contenders every week. Every conference has at least 1 or 2 lame teams and I haven't seen any team who didn't fill up their 12th game spot with an easy home "win".
“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”
The team plays who is in their Conference. If Bye weeks are their non-Conference games, they should get docked.
Notre Dame? Same scenario. They know who are legitimate teams and who aren't.
If Big 12 has a tougher conference than Big 10, which it does, that should go into factoring.

Is he going to have a choice? What has ND shown on defense this year that would give you any confidence that they can contain the USC offense?
The defense this year is at least slightly better than last year. I don't have a good sense of whether it's good enough such that Weis values points more than clock, however.

Sure it is.
All of you think teams like Texas Tech and A&M are pushovers. Look at overall records.
Someone has to have losing records, within the conference standings.

That can be said within any conference. This year, the Big 10 is better. It's that simple
Keep on Civin'
