Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[TrippieRedd]

Funny guy…because it didn’t

Technically it did.

If you would’ve RR, that would’ve been a nice payday. That’s my biggest issue, I never RR.

 

[Smokey123]

I for one am gonna be pissed when bama gets put in the playoffs and the vols arent. What’s the point of even playing the games

 

[peaygolf]

My wife asked me last night. Not a joke BTW...............

What's the dumbest thing you did as a child?

I thought about it for about 30 seconds, and said, "Wished I could be an adult."

Thing with that is you have to be really precise or you’ll lose your ass quick if you have no idea what you’re doing but rewarding if you do…I just don’t have that kind guts so I play high odd singles or parlays

Timing of losses matters just as much as anything else.

It gives you a better chance at winning? If anything, it’s the same. If you’re gonna lose, you’re gonna lose.

Think god! Me and @TN-POSSUM thought this was going to be another @drvenner grill special with the dad jokes

 

[TrippieRedd]

@UTSuave’ on that parlay, I would’ve done RR by 5. $10 on each leg, so $70.

Would’ve been like +3000-4000.

Which is stupid. Bama getting in because they lost 3 weeks earlier to Tennessee instead of Georgia is ridiculous. There’s zero valid argument for Bama (unless they straight up win the SEC champ) being in but not Tennessee in.

On top of that, had Bama played in Athens they lose that game too. Bama was very lucky to win that game

Haha my man place a 2x 354 ways I think that’s what it is anyways,with a bunch of random picks and you’ll see what I mean you’re looking at like a grand

It's always been that way though.
Too many other variables aren't equal for that to be the massive qualifier people want it to be.

You’re really about to make me count the money I left on the table this early? you really do hate me

I think you’re basically right, BUT if you are just comparing two teams and resumes are reasonably close, H2H should be decisive.

Imo. Bama/OM/Tennessee all should get in. The bigger tragedy and spot of outrage should be Boise St or whichever G5 team getting in just to get annihilated. They're the ones stealing a spot.

Correct if the argument was just TN/Bama for a spot then H2H should be above all, but infortunalty that's not the doscussion.

@drvenner


I can't take my dog to the park anymore.
The ducks keep biting him.
I should have known this would happen.









He's pure bread.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I never look at my picks..just the account balance in case it hit…so going back over These is rough like laughing in pain rough 10/10 do not recommend boys @Enki_Amenra @TrippieRedd @mrMet

Best thing to do is look at the ones that cost you, imo

Sometimes but not always. Most recent examples in 22 Tcu and Ohio state both lost their most receht games and made the playoffs. ND got killed by Clemson last week of the season in 2020 and made it in

I kind of agree. I think Boise St could beat some of the teams that get in Colorado/byu, Miami/smu, Penn state. They played good vs Oregon. But I do agree Bama/OM/UT deserve a spot

It’s going to be interesting seeing who DW picks to replace Barnes when he decides to retire, especially given the fact that a lot of the pieces will still be there from a roster standpoint

It’s got be soon, he’s 70. These days you can’t bank on a roster being there, though.

What is RR?

I wish I could be 8 again. That was fun.

Another thing is let’s say the CFB polls look similar to AP. Bama makes SEC champ and loses, will they stay consistent and drop them out and below Tennessee? Or keep them above? I think that will show how consistent they actually are and if there is a real strong bias
