What it will take to get 6+ wins...

Noooo!... Don't say that!
Kong is a National Treasure and we should all bend a knee to his posts because he was "right that one time..."
Sorry couldn't help it. RollingLaugh
l don't really have an opinion about it one way or another because I've seen it seem way out of whack and seen it seem pretty spot on. But, it does seem fairly universally accepted as a pretty good metric when talking about QB performance. I do think it's important to factor in the strength of the defense, which it supposedly does. So, yeah I probably value it more than just looking at stats in a vacuum in that regard.
I get it.
the fact they don't publish how "difficulty" of play is incorporated makes it something less, in my opinion. heck, the fact they don't publish the formula at all makes it by definition a non-statistic.
kyle mccord the 9th best QB in the country? Milroe 13th? I don't think so.
Oh, you didn't hear??
He predicted Haarberg would perform better than Sims...
So in some posters eyes (including his) he can trash all threads if/when any poster has any criticism on HH play on the field.
It's countless. Priceless. And obsessive.
speaking of spin, here's you a scant few weeks ago during the ILL game:
something clearly soured between us and it's clear you've done a 180 on our QB.
one thing's for sure - I haven't changed.
.Good post and I agree - but be careful about suggesting Iowa or any other lower level B1G team has any advantages over Nebraska. There’s a very “intellectual” bunch who will claim you are a fake fan and tell you to go post on their page.
I guess you don't think people are allowed to be excited about a big play in a game.
Poor kong, can't cope.
was right about this past week's game, unfortunately
there are countless additional examples. including raiola being unceremoniously let go at season's end.
I know once again these facts will not sway your opinion.
"our pass protection has to be better"
"we have to give our QB a chance to make plays"

Here’s how it works with Johnny…
Johnny says something dumb.
You show him facts that clearly disprove him
He then says “you’re having a meltdown”.
You dunk on him with more facts
He disappears for a week
he likes to point out how often I'm "wrong" while having the courage to post *zero* predictions of his own.
typical mental midget.
Oh here comes tampa that is save his buddy kong. What a cute couple.
Next comes the name calling.
some people are much more in their element on the Open Scrolls where facts are meaningless and feelings rule the day
At least I didn't have to create a whole new handle just post here, John

Didn't read the thread, just the title, but I'm going to say this kind of thinking is part of the problem.
Focus on each game, one at a time, then evaluate it at the end of the season.
I personally think all this 6 win garbage is what screwed us up last week. And it could continue to if players, coaches, and fans continue to focus on it.

Fair point. Should retitle the thread, "What it will take to get one win at a time on our way to the Natty this year..."
