A lot of “well actually” grumps in here today. You provided statistics from the king of college football statistics and that wasn’t enough.You're very mature, I can tell.

Nevermind it's just an expression of normal vernacular.A lot of “well actually” grumps in here today. You provided statistics from the king of college football statistics and that wasn’t enough.
You seem to be downplaying the returning production stat. I gave reasons why it might be a really good thing for ISU. Care to participate in the discussion?Is anyone else saying...
Post 30 and it was twisted from there.You seem to be downplaying the returning production stat. I gave reasons why it might be a really good thing for ISU. Care to participate in the discussion?
I mean, come on, can we not acknowledge that the stat kings are lacking a little context here?A lot of “well actually” grumps in here today. You provided statistics from the king of college football statistics and that wasn’t enough.
Yeah, I don't think it's overstated given the context of this team/roster/program/Connelly's reputation. There aren't many asterisks attached to our returning production stat, and it's a stat that Connelly takes very seriously. Much more seriously than whatever PFF puts out for social media engagement.Post 30 and it was twisted from there.
I'll always have faith in our defense. I like our offensive weapons. Until we see different the Oline will be in prove it mode.Yeah, I don't think it's overstated given the context of this team/roster/program/Connelly's reputation.

You have to be invited to join the SEC or B1G. You get big pay checks from broadcast rights. The ball washers are just part of the fringe (French) benefits.How do I get my own ball washers? That sounds nice.
I agree that this is promising... I looked this up a few years ago when they initially started talking about the 12 team playoff. I think the issue will be the years where you only see OU or OU/tex. I understand that 1 team will make it and that there are new B12 teams that will help offset that a bit. My concern is that with all of the teams that were added to the b10/sec, and the fact that there are now 12 teams that will make the playoff, we may start to see even more b10/sec bias. I think we have a shot to get 2 but I'm afraid it won't be as common as it appears it should be based on historic rankings.I just went back and looked at every final playoff rankings. Each year besides 2 the Big 12 would have had 2. Many future Big 12 teams also sprinkled in that would offset the loss of OuT.

Don't kid yourself, they will do everything they can to squash the Big 12 getting multiple bids and push their 4 schools into the playoffs.I agree that this is promising...

It will be worse than that IMO but I'm a pessimist.I can't wait to see 9-3 Bama go in over a 10 win team from about any conference.
