  • Sagarin's numbers have Marshall winning by 2, Conference USA as the worst conference by far, and Marshall ranked #73 and wvu ranked #75.

    ESPN’s Power Index is pretty consistent with Sagarin. We’re ranked 68 and they”re ranked 82. On the bright side, at least we’re the best of the worst. Sagarin, Massey, and ESPN all rank us ahead of every other CUSA team.

  • The Marshall home field advantage has slowly eroded away. The once best home winning percentage has fallen off to teams like Charlotte, FIU, Akron and more.

    I am not surprised it’s at only 5 or 6. Marshall needs to recover and rally together Saturday and take it to Ohio. I expect the same thing out of our fans. Boise is behind us but I believe there is a lot left on the table to play for.

    Hopefully the team will grow from the loss and kick some ass Saturday!

  • There is a hell of a lot to play for. IF the D can play like they did at Boise and the offense can somehow come to life, we can win the rest of our games, the CUSA title and our bowl game. That would be a heck of season. It's up to our staff to coach them up and develop good game plans; then the kids have to execute.

    Cincy is the best team left on our schedule and they are not as good as Boise from what I have seen. jmho.

  • Being favored by about a TD sounds about right. If the defense can contain Ohio like it did against Boise, a completely anemic Herd offense should be able to win a close one. I'm not sure I'd bet any money on it, though. That tight of a win is predicated on limited turnovers, dumb penalties, and coaching SNAFUs. IG won't be able to win a shootout or dig them out of a hole.

    I agree.  Unless the Marshall offense can turn it around in the course of a week a close game score wise is to be expected if Marshall is favored to win. 

    Ohio is favored by many to win or at least make it to the MAC championship game.  One thing Solich has been known for while at Ohio is good physical line play.  This season he also has the best preseason QB in the MAC.  If its true that the MAC is a much better conference than CUSA we should be happy Marshall is favored even if Marshall is favored to win CUSA.

    Maybe I'm looking through green glasses but I would take Marshall at home in this game and give Ohio 5 points.

    That's correct. Case in point, look at my post in this thread - I simply relayed information about Marshall/Conference USA according to Sagarin's numbers, pointed out that Marshall was ahead of wvu, yet I was spited for it.

    You post a thread entitled "Doc will never get it" with all the DS floating around, have an inflammatory handle and are worried about getting smited ?

    I didn't say I was "worried about" it. I was merely pointing out the accuracy of the poster who said my name was an accurate description of much of this board. In pointing out the accuracy, I referenced being spited for simply relaying the results of Sagarin's updated ratings.

    Cut with the straw man arguments. What are you, 12 years old. Just because you got one old cynic to back you up doesn't make half the Board a cesspool of morons. There's only a couple of morons on here and I'm fairly I'm addressing one of them right now.

    I’m not sure you know what that means. You said I was worried about it. I responded that I wasn’t worried about it. That’s not a straw man argument. That’s addressing exactly what you said, which is basically the opposite of a straw man.

    Just because you got one old cynic to back you up doesn't make half the Board a cesspool of morons.

    It’s not only the “one old cynic,” but also the two people who smited the post about Sagarin’s numbers that prove my point. If you’re not one of those two who smited, you’re yet an additional person who fits my screen name.

    Look, the Board is on notice that you're a freaking Maroon and probably a poutie Maroon as well. Why don't you go post on the Nation - pouties are welcome over there.

    When you come on here with a POS $#!+ for brains handle and try to tell this Board that half of them are morons you are going to be called on it. GTFOOH.

  • I’m not sure ole Cesspool isn’t on to something with the Maroon statement.  There are a huge amount of people on here that believe Doc is actually doing a great job and that we should be damn lucky we have him.

    You’re wrong on multiple levels. Ignoring parts of your argument and only focusing on other parts isn’t anything close to a straw man. A straw man is making an argument against something you never argued and attributing that bogus argument to you. That’s not what I did. As I said, you have no idea what a straw man is.

    Second, the part of your argument which you believe was the important part wasn’t ignored. Your entire argument was that I was allegedly “worried” about something even though [insert whatever you said].” Your entire premise was that I was worried, which is false, so your entire argument was flawed. Now, you could have said “Well, with that user name and your post against Doc’s handling of the timeouts, I’m sure you’d expect some pushback against your comments,” and you’d have a point. But that’s not what you said. Your point was, incorrectly, that I was worried. Common sense, which you seem to lack, should show you that somebody who has this user name and posts against the “DS floating around” isn’t worried about being spited.

    The best part is that you refer to people as “d!ck suckers” on here, call other names, have no idea what a straw man is, then claim that I’m the 12 year old.

    Finally, that “one old cynic” you claim now has people like Garbanjo and Swain supporting our sentiments in this thread. Let me know if you still can’t find a calculator.

    Welcome, HN elder. It’s a pleasure to see you here. I’m not allowed to call you a Maroon here, but you and others are allowed to call me that and “dumb.” And, yes, Sagarin’s system is highly regarded by me here as it should be.

  • I'm through posting on the main board until you are banned or disappear. Your precious karma is currently running 2:1 toward the negative. You appear to be living in some fantasy world of some kind ... believing maybe that you add value to the Board or that people actually want to read the drivel that you post. Maybe something like a cross between _sturt_ who has to have a verbose last word and weenie arm, the board-hacking know-it-all.
