Penn St?! Their schedule is even more cupcakey than UW so far. They snuck by a mediocre Pitt team at home who has been awful other than that miracle against UCF. Putting them above Auburn, especially after last night, is hilarious.
I mean, 3 of their next 4 are against teams that are currently ranked. They’ve already beaten the Number 11 team at the time. Their non-conference schedule is incredibly soft.
I don't watch much college football (even though my team is undefeated since 1960), when did Michigan fans start doing the chop? And why?
You sure it isn’t the Temptation tradition you are referencing?
Yes, Penn State.
Maybe so. It was on at the health club so no sound, maybe they were yelling "you suck", but it was more of a chopping motion rather than pointing. Couldn't figure out how that was related to Wolverines.

LOL, grow up. Coming to crow about a ranking that made no sense at the time after one team loses on the road to a top 10 opponent and your team beats a 1-4 scrub team is pathetic. But whatever, expect nothing less from you.
I went by the eye test. I’ll stick to it. They may not be that good, but I think better than you are giving them credit for. Auburn, overhyped.
Eye test? Come on man. This is confirmation bias nonsense. The eye test for a team that in 5 games has beaten 3 bad teams, went into halftime trailing a horrible Buffalo team, and tried to give the game to Pitt multiple times? Compared to one that wasn't over-ranked highly coming in, and rose up the basis of beating multiple good teams (Even Tulane is as good a win as any PSU has). And they were in a 3 point game on the road until late in the 4th. Overhyped, lol.I hate Wisconsin with all my heart, but you championing Penn St while crapping on Wisconsin thus far tells me all I need to know about your "eye tests".
His “eye test” is “do I like the program/school? If so they’re underrated. If not then they play a cupcake schedule, every team they beat is overrated, and they suck.”Auburn? They suck, haven’t played anyone good because Oregon is overrated and FL is overhyped. But that PSU team, very impressive season so far dominating the powerhouses Idaho, Buffalo, Maryland, Purdue, and Pitt. Every one of those programs would smoke Michigan, Wisconsin, Oregon, and Florida. My eyes tell me so.
They are ranked 5th through 8th in the power ratings. They may not be that good, I don’t know. In the limited time I have seen them play, they looked pretty good. And yes, my eyes are definitely going south.They may be trash and living on a bad schedule. Auburn has looked good, but overhyped to me. Georgia and Clemson, the same. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t good and can become great by season’s end. OSU has been best team I have seen thus far this year.
Wait. So you don’t pay attention to the polls, but you use “power ratings” as evidence of how good PSU is? 😂
I trust computers more than people, if that is what you are asking. Yes. I don’t mind human polls toward the end of the season, find that unreliable early.Incidentally, as much as I hate WI, I didn’t say they weren’t any good. In fact I said they were good and potentially very good, but their schedule, especially historically, leaves me guessing how good they really are. We will find out a little bit against MSU, who I think is so so. I expect OSU to handle them easily. If not, well then they will prove they are the real deal.
If this is the 8th best team in the nation, college football has a problem with lack of quality. Or did they tell the two teams wear old uniforms and play like you are 70 years old.
Cheeks: “I never said UW wasn’t good. In fact I said they are good.”Arguing with you is like arguing with a 5 year old. No, you never said the words “UW sucks.” But anyone with one iota of an ability to comprehend the written words sees exactly what you’re saying here. Your playing the dumb victim is hilarious given how you love to shout from the mountain tops how intelligent you are.
I said a few weeks ago...far different than your imaginary interpretation.“I think they are a good team, and have a Heisman candidate back....and they will be highly ranked all year because of the soft schedule, but until they finally win a meaningful game on the national stage that’s where I am.”
Hmm.“If this is the 8th best team in the nation, college football has a problem with lack of quality.”I’ll repeat that.“ If this is the 8th best team in the nation, college football has a problem with lack of quality.”There’s genuinely no possible other way to interpret that beyond “Wisconsin is not a quality team.” So in your definition “not a quality team” = “a good team.”Makes a lot of sense, given who’s posting.
So you’re going with...Wisconsin might be good. They might be the real deal. Or they might not be good.Way to go out on a limb there!
Cherry picking again. I also said this...in the same thread only a few posts later...“24-15 at home late against a 1-3 Northwestern team. UW-madison extension is a good team, but if that is the 8th best team....yowza. “I guess you just ignore where I said they are a good team just not the 8th best team. Tell me, is it possible to be a good team, just not a top 10 team or are only good teams ranked 8th and above? LOL. Makes a lot of sense considering who is whining they didn’t bother with the complete picture I stated.
