Saunders Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Quote Welcome back from a hopefully long holiday weekend, there is good news to share: We have crossed another important offseason milestone. At some point each summer, enough of the college football preview magazines are out for the "preseason consensus" to pop up on stassen.com. If you're not familiar with stassen.com, it's one of those now increasingly rare examples where you can still say to yourself, "man, isn't the internet great?" It's just data compiled by someone who has an interest in college football. It arose out of a Usenet group. It looks like the 1990s. Everything about it is perfect. Stassen.com has preseason consensus tallies starting in 1993. What was once just a roundup of the preseason magazines has now grown to include websites and online predictors, and as the number of prognosticators has grown I've found the consensus view becomes more valuable. It allows you to ask and answer: How did most people feel about Minnesota entering the 2003 season? Simple question, but hard to answer without someone keeping score. https://hailvarsity.com/s/7225/hot-reads-early-consensus-is-kind-to-2019-huskers 1 Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Phil is starting to lose accuracy. Perhaps his ranking parameters need to change. In any event, I’d love for him to get back on track this year, cuz it’s favorable to us. Quote Link to comment
