Bowl Selections are confusing

November 18th, 2007 | Posted in Uncategorized

I’ve been doing bracketology for over a decade now, so I’m as familiar with the selection process as anyone. After doing it for a while, you start to understand the confluence of “science” (RPI ratings, strength of schedule, etc) and “art” (the subjective selection process, the influence of conference ties in the selection room), and [...]

November 14th, 2007 | Posted in Uncategorized

“The Picture is Clearing up”
The BCS Championship is starting to come into focus, and I can say with glee, Ohio State WILL NOT be invited to the party (they don’t deserve it). Sadly, the Big Ten will once again not win the big dance. Ohio State and Michigan will battle to see who plays in [...]
