Well, our “bend but don’t break” defense worked out ok again yesterday. Now the Heisman frontrunner is coming to town and I bet I’m not the only one concerned that he might break the code.
On another note, should we give Bodine a few meaningful touches to see if he’s part of the solution at RB?
#15 in the Polls, but #12 in RPI. Weird thing is…State is #43 in RPI with a SOS that is similar, PLUS we’re 2-5 against RPI Top 25 teams. Strange that there is such a big gap.
The Tarholes are 1-5 against RPI Top 25 teams. They are 1-6 against RPI Top 26 teams (Notre Dame is 26th in RPI). Their biggest win is over Louisveille (RPI 19) with their next best wins being against Ohio State (35), NC State (43), UCLA (47), and Davidson (47).
The Tarholes only road wins this season over RPI Top 100 teams on the road were against State (43) and Clemson (86).
They are losers of 4 of their last 5 games with their lone win during that period coming at home against Boston College.
I’m not sure why the Cheaters are #15. The only Marque wins they have are at home against Louisville and at a neutral site against Ohio State.
I’m glad jrcox posted this and did the research as it supports my thoughts on Doeren so far. I think we need to ride this out and see where we stand at the end of the year next year. If we see any signs of improvement…we should continue forward with Doeren. It’s not like we’ve got a choice right now anyhow, we have to keep Dave for at least another season and a half.
That being said, I feel as if progress is being made on the recruiting trail.
The mention of Miami is on point. Wow are they underperforming!?! The other team noted is UNC, to put their failure into perspective…they’ve recruited almost evenly with CLEMSON over the time frame referenced. Chew on that one for a minute…
They’ve recruited at a Clemson level even with the heavy penalties from the NCAA. *sarcasm*
