Our 1992 team beat Arizona 8-7 and went 11-1.
We beat UVA 14-12 last season and finished 5-7

The Empirical One speaks again.
AtM vs Miami will not be decided 2-0.
So let it be written, so let it be done.

I stand firm in face of this new information.What if I told you that Willis Peguese was the long-snapper for aTm?
To me this is a head vs heart comparison where there is no clear cut winner because I think both sides arguing would agree to hop on the other side of the fence depending on circumstances.I’m not going to really get into it with people that say they would rather look good and lose than look bad and win
I think White Men Can’t Jump covered that decades ago
It’s really a bit of a pointless debate without context anyway but I appreciate the responseTo me this is a head vs heart comparison where there is no clear cut winner because I think both sides arguing would agree to hop on the other side of the fence depending on circumstances.
The heart always wants to win. I do not care if its 2-0 or 3-2 or whatever, every time you step on the field you want to win.
The head however could lose the battle to win the war.
By virtue of example, everyone claiming they think looking better on O would be better than a squeaked out win likely agrees if it is a national championship game, or CFP their theory is out the window and they would want to win 3-2.
Conversely, the people saying always win would likely change their stance if we were 7-4, last game of the season, largely meaningless as far as W/L BUT a huge offensive outburst would swing a big recruit like Jeremiah Smith then if it was would you rather win 3-2, go to 8-4 record, play in the taxslayer bowl, and lose J. Smith or lose 45-41, go 7-6, still play in the taxslayer bowl but get J. Smith, my guess is people pick the latter option.
lol I agree man.... if we won every game (including championship) 10-9 and went 15-0, we likely sign a top 5 class BUT if we lost every game 52-48 and went 0-12, we likely sign a top 30 class lolIt’s really a bit of a pointless debate without context anyway but I appreciate the response
Like if we score 3 points in one game and win, and it’s an anomaly then hey great. But if it’s a consistent thing all season then that’s different
Conversely the point about losing WRs according to one game is not how it works…unless it’s like last year. Pointing to the Virginia game in a vacuum doesn’t mean anything but looking at the week in week out dog**** offense we trotted out there does
It’s still easier to sell wins to me so in this bizarre hypothetical scenario we are in here that’s just my stance
@Wario Cristobum …what is your old username?IMO WR is the 2nd most important position in modern cfb.

I wondered where you had gone. It’s good to see you’re still on the board. Thanks for clearing that mystery up for me. I knew that you’re a vet from your high post count and reaction score, but couldn’t figure out who you were.I was originally TimeBomb (was my name at Shadows board too) but on a couple occasion the The Franchise called me a bum, and getting insulted by him made my highlight reel. So in honor of that I became TimeBum. And in the offseason I decided to do a heel turn and become Wario Cristobum because it's fun to be the bad guy.
