A look ahead at Nebraska's 2014 schedule

[carlfense]

Apologies in advance for the snark. I guess I'd be surprised if Miami were much better this year as well.

They probably won't be much better this year. Unfortunately, we probably won't be much better either.

[Saunders]

Golden has lost almost all his games against the top 30, something along the lines of 42-10.

At Miami, Golden is 3/9 against top 25 teams. ----- 33%.

At Nebraska, Pelini is 8/23 against top 25 teams. ---35%

 

 

(Feel free to double check, math has never been my strong suit. I didn't use top 30 because the rankings weren't listed beyond top 25 on the site that I was using.)

Okay?

My lands Bo only has 8 wins against top 25 teams, aka, his "peers?"

 

That's........that's really bad.

K, but I wasn't talking about Bo. I mean, i know you have such a hard-on for turning every conversation into a "why I don't like Bo Pelini" thread, but let's stay on track. I also some of you are a one trick pony and can only talk about one thing on here, but let's try to broaden our horizons a bit, k?

8-23 isnt good by any means. But these are also against some teams that finished the year unranked/ranked higher, as well as victories over teams that were just shy being ranked/finished ranked. Its a nify stat if you want to show Bo in a negative way. And its okay to say we win 9 games a year. Same kind of stat.

 

Im looking at the gray area, the portion not measured by legit stats and those other "stats. The gray area for 2014 looks pretty good, the gray area from last year also doesnt look too shabby.

Does Golden's record matter or not? You brought it up . . . and I assumed that you had a reason for doing so.

Yes, I did. He's gotten crushed by teams with a pulse in the crappy ACC.

 

Not sure what it had to do with Bo.

This doesn't surprise me because cognitive dissonance is a powerful thing.

Bo's record against teams that finished the year ranked is 8-18. Still poor, but not as much so.

 

 

I don't have a point.

No, actually I was referring to the fact that we weren't discussing Bo Pelini, but you felt the need to derail the subject into a dead horse topic. Not surprised though.

Anyways. I happen to agree that Al Golden's record against top 25 teams isn't impressive.

 

Ahem.

Would you like to get really broad and discuss duplicity and irony then? Because you have them down whether you know it or not.
