That's a comparison. Now the question, is it a good or fair comparison? All things being equal no I would not. I believe if Ol Miss and bammmer played 10 times bammer wins 9.
I believe and logical persons would agree.

That's probably true. But it's also irrelevant. If Bama finishes the regular season 11-1 that one loss to Ole Miss is still there regardless of how bad or how many times Bama would beat them now.

If UT is fortunate enough to win next week which would require Bama not playing their best game I doubt the comments will resemble these.

I think most logical people would say bammer is a LOT better than Ol Miss.
I think most logical people would say BG and the tiggeres from the bluff city are a LOT closer to one another and in 10 games would go 50/50 maybe 60/40.
But most on this thread are not logical.

But at the end of the day Ole Miss won the game. Bama being better is the reason for the idea. Ole Miss beat a better team.

Like I said before. I doubt UT will be looking at a win over UA any different just because Bama didnt play well. I can imagine the #!/+ storm that will come about if anyone tries to minimize the win as some here are doing.

Comparisons do. And that's exactly what I did using a common opponent. You may want to look transitive up.

Your argument with Bowling Green was what transitive means and it is a really dumb argument anyway..I am sure you'd expect to be routed by Toledo since they beat Arkansas on the road and we couldnt beat them at home.

Common opponents are not transitive man. It's just not. I explained it to you. Re read it.
Comparing us to a team we have not played (Toledo) would be transitive. Pay attention here. UT and tigger high (the main point here so pay attention) BOTH played BG therefore a COMPARRISON can be made. Did that dumb it down enough for you?

And BTW, BG's coach implicitly said Memphis was better than UT after they played UM.

Toledo and UT both played Arkansas. You got Toledo vs the Vols? That smarten it up for you enough?

Your logic of common opponents is flawed. It just is. Accusing people of being illogical using it is, in itself, illogical.

I really hope you made up your name and that you're really not an alumnus of my school. That concerns me greatly if so.

Here's a little help for you. What you wrote here is an example of transitive.

You're running in circles. UT and Toledo have a common opponent....Arkansas. Let us explore the UT v Toledo matchup using it. It's your logic. I'm just living it.

Always amusing when people think they are smarter than they really are...you are using A and C's measurement with B to infer a measurement between A and C. That is transitive logic. And if it is a good method, what would you expect to happen between ut and toledo?

No you're not. But that's ok.

Well, please help my simple mind.

UT played BG.
Memphis played BG.

Analysis of a UT v Memphis game based on those results = not transitive.


UT played Arkansas.
Toledo played Arkansas.

Analysis of a UT v Toledo game = transitive.

This is what you've claimed here. Please elaborate so I can understand and thus justify my degree.

When someone has to tell us how intelligent his friends are, then you know you're dealing with someone who is compensating big time.
