Clearly the Right side of our OL is much better then the Left side! The Center position was not good with either Center!

Colorado had an Alabama transfer at DT that played really well. He was blowing his man up and pushing them back all game.

I was thinking of Office Space.

The reference to Superman 3 is part of a quote in Office Space.

Has this been updated for post wk 1. I would expect King to be above Klubnick

Yes, it’s brand new.

Yes, it’s brand new.

I must be misreading it, or not understanding what the preseason header means

Key will patch up the Center issues. Just some week 1 nonsense, glad we were able to overcome it and get the W.

He may "patch it up" but you don't just expect no problems when you lose a 3 yr starter with 2 all-most no exp guys at the CTr position. Clemson will give us a real read on how good a patch-job we got.

You’re right—it’s heading INTO the season. For some reason he dropped it after two weeks of football

Lopez made no sense if it was current lol

I'm glad I'm not going that crazy

The chart proves nothing… on either count.

You’re acting like people take an unbiased and rational approach to ranking college football teams!

I honestly believe the rankings are "gamed" for tv matchups in many cases. They want to advertise two top 25 teams for more interest.

Agree with your last sentence but not your first. It's generally good for a program to be ranked, especially with the new brand incentives for media payouts.

Maybe you could explain how you believe the rankings are "gamed". There are 62 voters, and their votes are public.

I like Kanel. And I agree with him.

I've emailed the Game on Paper site developer with our concerns; if I get a response, I'll share it.

@RonJohn and @slugboy, you will be pleased to note that the developer agreed there was a formula error and has corrected it. Yards/Drive and Yards/Play now are internally consistent with the total drives/plays/yards reported.

The developer (Akshay Easwaran, BSCS '19) appreciates the feedback.

There are a couple of alums involved in that, or in advanced stats

Thanks—and I’m glad he appreciated the feedback

Should ask about the turnovers too--they're missing an int.

Good to know. Thanks.

So let me get this straight. Klubnik went 19-38 for 230 yards, 0 TD and a pick - good for a -1 QBR and he graded out as the third best QB in college football?

That says preseason. I know someone said this was updated post week 1, but that just can’t be true, right?
