Phil Steele


this is based on quality of wins over FBS opponents.....FCS wins do not count

I'd just like to laugh at the SOS people prior to the season who were shitting on Michigan's schedule and I said -- a lot can change very quickly.

Interesting.

Similar to the Vern ranking I assume? With the exception of FCS wins...

Would be neat to scrape these findings by MOV and HOME/AWAY stats. Might get some neat results!

Colorado did help you out there a lot but the B1G is overall a lot better than it has been in the past so that helps.

As mentioned 4 months ago, you never know which teams will do well. There's a certain group of teams you can assume will follow through and do well year to year. But almost every year there's 10 or more teams ranked, that finish unranked, and an equal number of teams that are ranked that weren't ranked to start. And beyond that, surprise teams that come from no where. Pre-season rankings only have a certain amount of value.

The dude is pretty unreliable. His stats are pretty good but his picks are shit. He is way under 50% against the spread last time I checked...what a slapdick. Maybe I should get a show or column because I am above 50% and I was around 70% last year.

But do you have a magazine where somehow you change what your picks were every year and you magically end up with a 100% correct rating? And in your magazine is 200 out of 300 pages about how great you are?

Phil Steele is trash.

Phil Steele is trash.

Wish someone just exposed him as the fraud he is. I rather freaking Galloway to him, at least Galloway is trash and doesn't pretend what he says was correct by trying to change history. Not sure if Steele realizes predicting a national champion means PRESEASON and not picking the winner of the game. Seems he takes them as one in the same.
