Wow, are we really in the last place Conference?

And look we are ranked 109th only ten teams from the very bottom. If that was our goal we are doing one hell of a good job!

I think that 109 is a little rediculous. I think that a more realistic rating would have us in the 60's-70's. we just get rated so low because we were in last place of the worst conference in D1A football at the end of last year. I thinkt that our team is much better this year and that we will end up ranked much more respectably by the end of the season. our rankings cant get much worse, but they do have room to get alot better.

Here are some numbers:

I took the ranking of each school in each conference to get a total, then divided by the number of schools in the conference to get an average (rounded to one decimal):

So SEC = 39.3 = 472 / 12 teams

SEC 39.3

BIG 12 39.9

ACC 40.8

PAC-1O 41.1

BIG TEN 42.2

BIG EAST 54.5

MOUNTAIN WEST 56.3

WAC 77

C-USA 85.2

MAC 89.7

SUN BELT 105.5

Fairly close to their conference ratings. I may make it a project to track this during the season!

---Let see......... The last place team in the worse rated conference gets to play #1 and "Defending National Champion" in game 1...... pass the aspirin please.

---If your kid are the dumbest kid in the dumbest class on campus... it is rather unlikely that your kid that is all that average in intelligence.......... 109 may be low (now) but to put us in the middle is absolutly "green-eyed optimism".....especially when the last scimmage was a comedy of errors.

--- It the #1 team in the nation (Texas?) can't center the ball correctly they will lose, even if playing a low ranked team.... unfortunately it doesn't seem to be them but us at the moment....[ Feel my pain!!!] Forget the rest of practice --That is THE PRIORITY, get the ball into the hands of the QB and absolutely don't leave it on the ground. [ oh the pain!!!..I need some painkiller, and soon... ]

----Is there any possibility that all those turnovers and fumbles were an attempt to make UT over-confident.? I am sure they are shaking in their boots now after reading these articles about our screw-ups and great ranking... [ Where is that pain/killer?? ]

Would you pick us to beat any of these teams (honestly):

61 TOLEDO MAC

62 MINNESOTA BIG TEN

63 WAKE FOREST ACC

64 CONNECTICUT BIG EAST

65 KENTUCKY SEC

66 KANSAS BIG 12

67 N.C. STATE ACC

68 KANSAS STATE BIG 12

69 HOUSTON C-USA

70 MIAMI (OHIO) MAC

71 HAWAII WAC

72 SAN DIEGO ST. MTN. WEST

73 SMU C-USA

74 BOWLING GREEN MAC

75 MISSISSIPPI SEC

76 STANFORD PAC-10

77 MEMPHIS C-USA

78 MISSISSIPPI STATE SEC

79 OREGON STATE PAC-10

80 COLORADO ST. MTN. WEST

SMU is rated too high as well - look at the teams under them. SMU doesn't beat any SEC or PAC 10 teams this year.

Do you see any Sun Belt teams in that group? No. Then they would be OOC games and we know what the results will be. sad.gif

I think its more a talent gap than a coaching gap....but I know one likes to think about that

I really do not think the talent gap is that big of an issue, it is the lack of change and adaptation to the other teams manuevers. The players are the Pawns and the Coaches are the Chess Masters.

I dont think that we would be favored in any of those games, but a few of those teams are way over-rated due to conference affiliation. I think K-state, mississippi state, and Oregon State are bottom of the barrel in any conference this year and that we would have an excellent chance against them. I also think that Memphis and San Deigo st. are under-rated. maybe... just maybe, I was a little optimistic with my origional statment, but I still think that we are 20-25 places better than #109. thats my opinion and I am sticking with it. I mean it... dont test me again... the end.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
