What if Coach Staaffe instead of Mullen?

[DCWV4life]

It did not meet all the requirements. Go to the BCS site to see the explanation.

Who didn't the BE?

 

[bbwvfan]

So, what will DAD's spin on the ass whippin' OU put on Bama tonight? Should be fun to read.

 

[bbwvfan]

Who didn't the BE?

No, the BE did not have 50% of its teams finish in top 25 BCS rankings over the evaluated period.

 

[DCWV4life]

No, the BE did not have 50% of its teams finish in top 25 BCS rankings over the evaluated period.

I do not remember this being one to the stipulations at the time, but it is mathematically impossible for every conf to have 50% of teams in top 25, I think the SEC just did it for the first time this year.

Plus I thought it was final top10 we had to be apart of, which of course we did for the conf 3 Years in a row....if it was 50% of teams in top 25 that is a rediculous standard and new to me.

Well, every conference among the AQ were able to do it but one.

 

[WVUDAD]

Well, every conference among the AQ were able to do it but one.

BB, look at what you just wrote, it is IMPOSSIBLE for 50% of BSC schools to be in the top 25, at the time there were 65 BSC teams................... As to spin, OU beat 'Bama, two teams played, one won, one lost.

NO, they did NOT, as it is impossible.

The above post came from this page of their website. Sorry how the post turned out...

DAD, why is it when OU beats Bama it is simply... 1 won... 1 lost? But, when a Big 12 champ loses... it is a sign of Big 12 weakness?

No need to answer... it was a rhetorical question.

I don't know what particular year you are talking so I will assume 12 SEC, 12 ACC, 11 B11, 8 BE, 10 PAC, etc.
100% SEC 12 teams
78%B11 8 teams
66% PAC 7 teams
64% B12 8 teams
57% ACC 7 teams
49% BE 4 teams

I am already counting 49 teams to be in your top 25, as I said, it is impossible, so post all the stuff you want to. Half of 65 is 37, plus there is always a few non AQ teams in the top 25, so give it up.

Dude...

This is not my research. It is from the bcsfootball.org website. The years evaluated were 2004-2007.

 

[bbwvfan]

I don't have to give up anything. It is sound evidence from the bcsfootball.org site.


Now, if you want to give up... I will understand.

Saying 50+ teams are in the top 25 is NOT sound evidence.......................PERIOD

 

[JIMKOON]

if one were to understand how the bcs does their ranking then maybe simple calculation would work but since we dont have to deal with it anymore who really cares based on simple math you cant have 50 teams in the top 25 makes sense but since the bcs never made sense it can be argued both ways

 

[bbwvfan]

DAD,


You feel the BCS was making stuff up?


What did you think about the other categories where the BE was last among the AQ conferences? I'm guessing you thought those findings were lame too. Too funny...

Jim... it was 47 teams over a time period of 4 years. These teams simply had to be ranked in the BCS final standings once over that period of time to meet the requirement set forth by the BCS.

 

[Mike]

I would say it means that 50% of the teams, from their respective conference, had to make the final BCS top 25 over a 3 year period. It is simple to see how that equates.

Adjusted Top 25 performance ranking (number of teams in top 25 of BCS standings, as a percentage of the top conference)

Never thought this would have to be over analyzed... LOL... but, rereading the above... not sure we are looking at the number of teams correctly. It said an adjusted top 25 performance... using the top performing conference as the measuring stick. So, the SEC was the top performing conference over the evaluated period. They were given 100%. The rest of the conferences were then mathematically compared to the SEC's total to determine their percentages.


May not have been that all 12 teams from the SEC were BCS ranked from '04-'07... just that they had the best performance of all conferences to be given top conference designation of 100%.
