we have such a tough job. We've got to give some role player their career scoring day and still manage to eke out a win.

Winning money helps ease the pain of losing. It's a rational approach as long as Brownell is the coach. But honestly I have no idea how the Bradster does against the spread.

I do not bet on our tigers game by game. Not for or against. I did out 50 bucks on winning the natty this year prior to the season.

and fairly so, is that his teams tend to be inconsistent and frequently lose games they shouldn't.

Speaking to consistency, a concept CM refuses to grasp, the bottom 3 teams of the ACC (very bad teams) have 4 wins combined against the top half of the current conference standings. The bottom 3 teams of the SEC have zero wins against the top half of their conference. JK and CM will weakly argue that Louisville beating Miami or giving Clemson a game means we’re a deep conference. It really means we’re just a bunch of middling, vulnerable teams that might play great one day but can lose to anybody. The best teams avoid these pitfalls.

That's also why...

|

wins and losses against ACC teams are perceived differently than wins and losses against SEC teams and the impacts on the metrics (RPI, NET, KPI, SOR, etc.) more than supports that.

But other teams have been upset sometimes, so we obviously can't blame Brad. You must not watch much basketball.

Does it? Is that why the bottom three teams of the ACC have a combined zero wins against the top half of their league? Now do the ACC were the 13th place team, who has a NET ranked equal to the worst team in the ACC, has wins over the three ACC teams projected to make the NCAA tournament. The ACC is a garbage basketball conference as are your basketball observations.

That means that if we win, it will be that we barely squeaked out a win even if we're up by 20 in the last half of the 2nd half...

Then again, it could be yet another soul sucking defeat where the team inexplicably blows a decent lead with a minute 30 left. Depends. They really need to stop blowing leads with the game almost over.

I’d never bet against Clemson. Also I’ll never bet on Clemson basketball to cover any spread. Much less against a real coach on the road.
