Nov 20, 2021, 10:39 PM

ESPN won’t even mention it in their halftime shows. Harvard vs Yale gets more coverage…

Do you think this is the first time an untrained team at home has been favored over a highly ranked team?

Re: Tenth ranked team goes down


Nov 20, 2021, 11:05 PM

Probably not the first but doesn't happen often. And when was the last time the the unranked team boatraced the highly ranked team by 21 after being a fav by more than 4?

I'll let u research that for us.

Utah was favored over Oregon. While not unranked


Nov 21, 2021, 9:02 AM

they were #23 while Oregon was #3, so pretty similar.

Does not happen often with a top ten versus an unranked team.

I was pretty confident we could win due to Wake’s defense being SO bad if we could score between 24 to 30 points. We knew the defense would do what it needed to.

Loved the way the D got after yesterday. And the way Tony stuck with the run game for a change. We have a 3 headed monster at RB next year.

ESPN wishes Clemson didn’t exist. We recruit against their teams.

tiger_swimmer®, even worse Clemson BEATS their SEC teams.

Still somewhat surprised any time that ESPN has a Clemson game as part of their programming. Figured that they would go 'all Google' on us and censor any showing or mention of Clemson ... except when we lose.

Ill go ahead and confess that I have not kept up w the polls re the records and quality wins of the top 25 since we fell out, but I do not begrudge voters for not having us ranked between our last loss and thus afternoon. But I am still curious why one would say we should've been ranked prior to today. We are only now beginning to have a record worthy of the national recognition of and we made fools of all who were, at the start of the season, ranking us highly and prepared to vote for DJ come Heisman time. Why do you disagree?

Point being its hard to understand how we were favored over a top ten team and unranked..... at least we proved the betting people right by beating the weak florist d bags by 21

Surprisingly it's not as uncommon as thought


Nov 20, 2021, 11:32 PM

Found this little blurb on a search;

AP top 10 teams are 20-13 ATS as an underdog against unranked opponents since the 1978 FBS/FCS split, including 10-3 ATS since 2005 and 4-1 ATS over the last five seasons. Nov 5, 2021

So, I guess those #'s will change to:
20-14 since 1978

10-4 since 2005

4-2 since 2016

Thats ATS...
But you actually did some research on it. Thats impressive.

Re: Surprisingly it's not as uncommon as thought


Nov 20, 2021, 11:39 PM

And its only happened 13 times since 1978... that right there is rare.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Surprisingly it's not as uncommon as thought


Nov 20, 2021, 11:42 PM

That's all I could find but it is still very rare ATS like you said only 13 times in 43 years!

So how many of those 13 were loses of 21 or more... more rare than 13 in the last 33 years I am sure.

Thanks for helping me prove my point.... we should have been more respected all season

Do you genuinely think wake was/is a top 10 team or were they overrated?

Wake just got a beat down by a team that played
Georgia Tech within 6pts (lost this week 55-0). ??

Re: Tenth ranked team goes down


Nov 21, 2021, 12:27 PM

Yes, they were ranked 10th when we beat them. Some people may think they were over rated or some may think we were under rated...
That's the whole point of the post, Mr. 40 percent.

Reading is fundamental. Can't wait to beat up your team next week... they are over rated...
