🏈 More "Style over substance" coming from the B1G and OOC schedules with Power 5 teams.

[TerryP]

Style over substance could easily be replaced with two words, "Bull" and "shit."

Do you guys recall all the crowing coming from the B1G country over their decision to enforce all schools to play Power 5 schools? Along with the PAC and the Big 12-2 they were lauding how they were stepping up their conference schedules due to the playoffs ... UNTIL ...

In the same vein as "One True Champion" we have this announcement from the B1G:




UCONN? A team that beat 'Nova and Army by a combined total of 10 points and lost to Mizzou is now considered on par with a "Power 5 team?"

Rest assured: The playoff committee is going to see through this just like they did the "Co-Champs" in the Big 12-2 last season.

(BTW, if you look over ESPN's FPI UCONN comes in at #106 out of 128 teams. Yah, that's a "power" opponent.

As long as we have this Power 5 thing going, I say all our OOC games should be with Power 5 opponents. I am ready for us to lock up long term contracts with Colorado, Kansas, Illinois and Wake Forest. :sarcasm:

And let's not forget UVA and Md. I would really like to see Bama come to Charlottesville.

Roll Tide!

What about North Carolina, Illinois, Kansas?

While we're looking around let's not forget some of the other powerhouses like Washington State, Iowa, Iowa State, and Indiana.

I don't know about Indiana it putting a hurting on Wake Forest right now.
