I will take Kromenhoek over MVB. We came out better. In the old days we would have to sit around and wait three seasons for our 5'10" QB to figure out how to read a defense.Quote:

MVB has a much larger sample size and Lebby is a much better OC than FSU's OC Alex Atkins. Kromenhoeck is 6'4" and has a stronger arm plus he had over 100 yards rushing in a FSU offense that doesn't really ask the QB to run much. MVB actually had negative rushing yards but the thing that bothered me the most about MVB was his awareness at times. He would take delay of game penalties and would start sliding way short of the first down marker. I know he is a freshman but those are things that even an average high school QB should know. MVB was also 5'10" which is not much taller than Tyson Lee was and it definitely was a factor in getting passes knocked down. Not to mention he also struggled with some shorter passes.Quote:

Kromenhoeck was terrible the 1 game I watchedQuote:

This is true. To everyone else it an illusion. Most bowl game suck due to the portal and the rich are getting richer.Quote:

The main problem is the transfer portal and until the NCAA puts a lid on that pandora box the game is gonna suck. Also The current NIL format is not sustainable for most of the schools. Now that it's out from beneath the table there are now bidding wars for top talent and schools with stupid rich Alumni and most schools are just not going to be able to compete with The Texas big 2 Notre Dame and hell if Stanford ever got Smart big tech schools. Most Alumni who had to scratch and claw to put themselves through college working minimum wage jobs are just going to say screw it and find other things to entertain themselves on Saturday/ Now this is just for football. I think MBBs are different due to the size of the teams.
Don?t be a drama queenQuote:

Purposely leaving out 2 teams that completely flipped the roster in 1 season and made the playoffs is an interesting miss. Vandy seemed to have luck closing the gap this year, think I recall they beat a team they traditionally do not.Quote:

ASU caught fire with a dam good Norm Bulaich and a coach who will be transferring to BAMA or LSU after next year. BTW I can't wait to see Sketterbro in the NFL.
Indiana's Big Ten Wins:
4-8 UCLA
4-8 Northwestern
1-11 Purdue
7-6 Nebraska
8-5 Michigan
6-7 Washington
5-7 Michigan St
Indiana had a dream schedule and took advantage
They were 3-9 last season, so even with a soft schedule, it was a big time turn aroundQuote:
