Find me any end of season unbiased ranking metric that says we were a better team than Ole Miss last year -- because EVERY unbiased metric I've seen had them as better than us. I'm a big fan of using the computer metrics to determine "how good a team actually was". I think it's the best/most accurate method going.
I dont have to find shitQuote:

Those are all the metrics needed
If you cant understand that you are stupid and I cant help you
By your logic- A&M had a better season than Bama last yearQuote:

Only 1 loss difference between the teams
A&M had a better season than the National Champs...good to know
Uh oh, name calling. The tell-tale sign of someone losing an argument and knowing it.Quote:

None of those things are relevant to who was a better team. You are literally doing with last year what you accuse people of doing with this year.Quote:

It also tells something about the character of the poster.Quote:

That's what I said already -- and backtracking to preschool logic and namecalling doesn't change a thing about it.
By your logic, Florida 2010 > MSU 2010 because Outback Bowl > Gator Bowl and 4-4 SEC = 4-4 SEC. So, the better team gets the better bowl, right?
damn, this thread is a beatdown. Let's take it easy on Coach, he seems to be having a bad betting season.Quote:

By EVERY unbiased computer metric out there, Alabama was superior to aTm. Much in the same way that Ole Miss was superior to us in every unbiased metric. The lowest Bama was in ANY computer metric out there = #3. They were ranked ahead of aTm in 123 of 124 computer metrics shown on the Massey composite...

Then I said "Anybody that thinks less wins are better than more wins is ****ing rahtard"
Thanks for finally agreeing we had the better season....took you long enough. I havent one time said we were the better team. Some of you need to learn to read.
Nooooo- I used the unbalanced SEC schedule that you used to measure State and Ole Miss. You brought up the unbalanced schedule- not me. Dont get mad when it doesnt work out like you wanted.Quote:

And you are bitching about MY reading comprehension? Seems to me that someone else needs to "learn to ****ing read".
wow- that's why you and the BCS are so flawed. It doesnt take a computer to see who had the best season.
Less wins, less conference wins, and a lower bowl means better season. Gotcha
Unbalanced schedule matters when its State-Ole Miss- but not when it's Bama-A&M
LOL -- "me and the bcs are so flawed" huh?Quote:
