Franklin presser

Read some of the comments. I don't care that they attack. Just shows they can make a valid argument but they do.
Some don't seem to comprehend what an opinion is...it is not an opinion that we handled this poorly so it got national attention. That's a fact.
“It is not an opinion that we handled this poorly”


Your statement is 100% an opinion, which is a concept you do not understand

McCord literally throwing away the game against Pitt

I commend you for being able to do that. I am a Pitt graduate (Law 1992) and despise them. Despite this, because my uncle had season tickets to their games until he passed away in 2004, I attended many, many Pitt games in my youth and when PSU games did not conflict once I got PSU season tickets. However, I just never could bring myself to root for them. The only Pitt teams for which I rooted were the basketball teams when Sam Clancy played for them.

Because of the above, I attended, among others, the 1975 game against ND when Dorsett ran all over them and every PSU game played at TRS and Pitt Stadium.
48-14 baby! Most fun I ever had at an away game.

Willie's Crystal Ball for 2025

But would they have had those high seeds going thru a B1G season and tournament?
I can say with 100% certainty that Hidlay would've been the 2 seed after B10s.

But seriously: does it really matter that much? Some would've dropped a couple seeds, and maybe that would've actually helped them.

Example: 133 Orine beat Van Dee and Nagao, lost to Bouzakis and Shawver. He probably would've been a high seed after B10s, but maybe not the 3. That would've helped him greatly -- he drew Postseason Vito in the quarters. He eventually took 8th after losing to Bailey and Shawver in consis.

Willie's Crystal Ball for 2025

I would be interested in your take on why NCST underperformed so much. I understand you'll be gentle to the NCST staff, but I'm actually interested in what went wrong. One guy blowing up is just that. Two doing it is concerning. Three is a trend.

I had NCST doing well similarly to you.
2 of them drew a Penn Stater in the blood round.

Ryan Jack did place, albeit lower than Lachlan

i mean, Arrington beat Caleb Henson.
Arrington DNP's, Henson wins title.

Jack wins ACCs and DNP's, Lachlan takes 3rd and places.

Ed Scott beats Andonian, only to lose to him at NCAA in quarters and DNP. Andonian places.

Fishback had wins over Feldkamp (previous AA), Foca (previous AA), Munoz (AA), Pasiuk (AA).

they were legit AA contenders.
