4 weeks 3 days ago You guys don't know what

You guys don't know what you're talking about.

Why do you guys think Boban is unplayable despite averaging 1.6 points per FG attempt? 

4 weeks 4 days ago .4x.4x.20-.30(whatever the

.4x.4x.20-.30(whatever the percentage on that Poole shot was)... that's still > 1%... 1 in 100 vs 1 in 10k, the situations aren't comparable. 

4 weeks 4 days ago It’s basically 0%... 11

It’s basically 0%... 11 second to go you’d need 2 missed FTs from a 90% FT shooter(1 %) + a super quick 3 pointer (30 % being generous), another foul with at least 1 missed ft or a turn over( 10 %ish) and a super quick 2 to tie or win (maybe 40% being ultra generous)

.01 * .3 * .1 * .4 = at most 1 in 10,000 to win or tie

5 weeks 6 days ago Why are they fouling us? It's

Why are they fouling us? It's a 12 point game with a minute left. 

5 weeks 6 days ago I feel like I'm gonna still

I feel like I'm gonna still be hearing "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHH" in my sleep tonight. 

5 weeks 6 days ago EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHH

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

5 weeks 6 days ago The worst part about this

The worst part about this game is the lady that won't stop yelling. 

28 weeks 6 days ago Greetings from San Juan! Red

Greetings from San Juan!

Red Cross just got here and their first move was kicking UPR students out of their dorms (which they had already paid for). Big surprise... *rolleyes* Many of these students live hours away and have lost everything back home.

1 year 2 weeks ago You can't default on

You can't default on IBR/PAYE/REPAYE if your loans are federal. You're charged a maximum of 10-15 percent of your disposable income, if your income is 0 you get charged 0....

1 year 2 weeks ago PSLF is 10 years though, not

PSLF is 10 years though, not 25. It's a sweet deal.

1 year 11 weeks ago meh, kinda cool that the last

meh, kinda cool that the last game of the series has Denard on the cover though. 

1 year 11 weeks ago simple solution is letting

simple solution is letting the players market themselves/sell their image/stop caring about how much they get paid for part-time jobs ect. No money would come from the university directly.

1 year 16 weeks ago This is the most moronic

This is the most moronic thing I've heard in awhile.

Where's the block button on this board?

1 year 21 weeks ago he went backwards right as

he went backwards right as his hand touched the turf, I've seen the replay more times than I wish I had.... 

1 year 21 weeks ago There's obviously going to be

There's obviously going to be some parallax, but using JT's hand for scale and distance I think a math person might be able to calculate approximately how far away from the line that ball was given the angle. 

I've read that first down is the middle of the line btw, not the edge of it. 

1 year 21 weeks ago A bunch of neutral fans agree

A bunch of neutral fans agree that we got robbed though.... 

1 year 21 weeks ago I mean... this argument would

I mean... this argument would hold more weight if it hadn't happened before. (see Kings vs Lakers western conference finals)

 

Refs don't even have to be aware of what's going on to have an effect. Just pick refs you know/suspect to have a bias in favor of teams you want to help/against teams you want to hurt. 

1 year 21 weeks ago if you start at the 25 the 15

if you start at the 25 the 15 yard line is the line to make, bringing out the chains would be less precise than using the line that's already on the field. 

1 year 21 weeks ago This conference is set up to

This conference is set up to have Ohio State win the whole thing as often as possible, going as far down as the officiating. 

Yesterday's game reminds me of the 2014 OSU vs Penn State game. That game ended in a 2OT victory for OSU too and featured inexplicably horrible calls going the way of OSU. Penn State complained and it was so bad even the head ref had a press conference but ultimately nothing happened and the officiating is as bad now as it was then.

As I've said before I'm done with college football until either the refereeing improves substantially or we leave the B1G(which, I'm not delusional, there's not even a .00000000001% chance of that).

1 year 21 weeks ago I'm 100% done with college

I'm 100% done with college football until either B10 refs improve substantially or we leave the B10.

1 year 23 weeks ago Some of you guys should

Some of you guys should relax... I don't get all the hysteria... 

1 year 25 weeks ago and your point is? Maybe they

and your point is? Maybe they weren't holding every play those other games? Maybe the refs were calling it when it happened?

1 year 25 weeks ago These refs missed a lot. Many

These refs missed a lot.

Many of you are complaining about the defense but look at the replays specially at the line of scrimmage. MSU could've stayed in the game even vs Bama with these refs. What's up with B1G refs this season? They cost Wisconsin their game vs OSU and could've easily cost us this game.

They just don't call the obvious holds. We should get jerseys that rip easily to shame them into calling it.

1 year 25 weeks ago MSU OL was holding every

MSU OL was holding every single play. Any team can beat any team in the B1G. Blind refs are the great equalizer.

1 year 26 weeks ago For the decade I think

For the decade I think Michigan, Miami and Tennessee lead the "doing less with more" ranking, Georgia would be high up there too though.

1 year 26 weeks ago If I were a wisky fan I'd

If I were a wisky fan I'd also say my team should've won that game. OSU got away with holding virtually every single play on offense and they got called for it maybe once. That's one of my biggest fears playing OSU, it's tough to beat them at the line if the refs aren't calling the obvious holds. 

1 year 27 weeks ago lol BYU vs Miss State still

lol BYU vs Miss State still going on at 2am is insane.

What did you study? I have a BS from LSA and the majority of my classes were not graded on a curve... actually, only a small handful were and I'm 100% sure you can get a BA from LSA  without taking a single one of them.
