Arkansas St. got crushed by the Black Knights 38-10. Is that because Bobby Ross is the superior coach or because stAte and the Belt just flat out STINK?

Depends did Ross manage to convince ASU's QB to throw four lame ducks into traffic (two of which Army managed to actually catch and hold on), fumble three times (losing one), get TWO penalties behind the play on a punt return, and keep a couple Army drives alive with a variety of penalties including two 15 yard face mask calls.

If Ross can do that, he's an awesome coach. If not...

We make excuse for other SB schools on this site now? Did FIU decide to start all cripples against WKU to keep it close?

Excuses? You a dimwit?

The question was that game a result of good coaching or pitiful Sun Belt. Most anyone could see that my opinion was that it wasn't good coaching by Bobby Ross so that leaves the second option.

Gosh, I guess I am a dimwit. My spelling error should have shown you that.

I did not read that you were A-State and you are not in the "ifs and buts" positivity business that many on this board sometimes enjoy. I misread your post as a excuse thread for some reason.

If that games took place in Mean Green Land, many just say if we did not do all of the things you mentioned (turnovers, penalties, etc.) we would have won and all is well. Forget the 300 yds on the ground - it was all just a few mistakes here or there.

Your analysis does bring up an interesting point though: can anyone in this conference play disciplined, low turnover/ mistake football against out of conference opponents more than once every year or two?

Sorry to piss you off after a rough weekend. I know it sucks to feel good about yourself and how you are playing in conference and then have a crappy to barely decent OOC team kick you in the groin and take you out of the game in less than 2 quarters.

So you're implying teams in the Belt just stink. unsure.gif

      Surrendering ourselves to a G5 playoff would be disastrous. It would give the P4 all the ammo they need to effectively remove the automatic bid for the highest ranked G5 champ. The correct solution, in today's environment, is to maintain the automatic G5 bid for the main playoffs and have a mixed G5/P4 NIT style tournament as Pernetti suggested. Don't take, add. Wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate future "NIT" and playoff spots per conference based on their previous performances. They do this in Europe for their European tournaments. Each league gets a coefficient rating based on the previous 5 years performance in European competitions. Not performing? You lose spots. Performing? You gain spots. So you know, the ACC going 1-9 so far, the Big12 going 2-7 back in 2022, the SEC going 6-8 and ACC going 2-4 both in 2021 would have some affect on that rating and future potential spots in the playoffs and NIT. No reason the ACC should get 2 spots next year considering this year's playoffs. The rating would just ensure transparency.

      Because the ever present lie of “we could be next” keeps G5 athletic directors, coaches, and fan bases docile. Keep the system just shy of outright exclusion of G5 programs and you can slowly strip away access while claiming that wasn’t the plan all along. It’s why the Power Ball lottery is so popular. Even though the chances of winning are exponentially small for everyone (the G5 programs), everyone will point to that one lady in a far off trailer park (Boise) who hit it big!

      Women at Wichita State (12/29/24)

      Time to see how good or bad this conference is. The women (8-4) travel north to face Wichita State (6-7) in the AAC opener. We beat the Lady Shockers in Denton last year, 72-68. At 8-4, the women are tied with ECU for third best nonconference record in the league. Only UTSA (9-2) and UAB (9-3) are better. However, at 17-7, UNT has the best combined men's and women's basketball record of any program in the AAC. Game is at 1pm on ESPN+.
