A&M President Loftin to take over the Chancellor spot at Mizzou

A&M President Loftin to take over the Chancellor spot at Mizzou

http://www.theeagle.com/news/local/article_b0fbfbc6-4f93-52f5-8487-c2a8e2f772d8.html

According to this he stands to make quite a bit of $ by pretty much doing nothing at A&M. I know Missouri's chancellor is leaving but this seems like a step down in terms of A) School B) Money and C) Job position. Then again he did go to A&M so who knows what he is even thinking.

odd. Would think that would be a step down. Being forced out of tamu?

They are going to beat Auburn and win the whole thing. Then they are going to lose to UCF in their bowl game.

Probably. Auburn needed to fun miracles; fun, but miracles none-the-less to get to the Championship game.

Tenn, Kentucky and Florida are not good football teams, Georgia needed OT to beat a very mediocre GT team.    Vandy is decent, but not great, they needed everything they could muster to beat a bad Wake team, Florida lost to Georgia Southern.   AtM can't stop anybody. 

While the methU fans will never admit it, it's the Big 12 North circa 2006 and 2007 all over again.

Dax has a point here with Mizzou's schedule.
SNOWBRAG rankings of Mizzou's opponents:

L - 14 South Carolina
W - 29 Georgia
W - 36 Texas A&M
W - 45 Mississippi
W - 50 Vanderbilt
W - 75 Tennessee
W - 80 Florida
W - 102 Kentucky

That's right. Mizzou's only top 25 opponent beat them on their home field.

[WildcatNkilt]

This board will be on fire when Mizzou loses to Auburn and doesn't make a BCS Bowl....2008 all over again for them.

Auburn's SEC opponents:

W - 2 Alabama

Snowbrag seems to rate SEC as complete garbage with an outlier or two.

That's the SEC hype.

The eye test says the SEC just isn't that good this year.   AtM looked like a team that was just going through the motions last Sat. night, and they still hung with MU.

Those stats would not look nearly as impressive if all of those good teams actually played each other.

oh crap, you know what? i forgot to consider that. snowbrag this whole time has been assuming that all SEC teams play each other.

Snowbrag factors in wins and losses as well as actual on the field performance, so there would be a substantial difference in your rankings.

Florida State:

W - 18 Clemson
W - 21 Miami (FL)
W - 54 Boston College
W - 59 Maryland
W - 62 Pittsburgh
W - 67 Syracuse
W - 88 Wake Forest
W - 98 North Carolina State

FSU's schedule looks about equally as difficult as those SEC schools' do.

so are you arguing that the teams i have listed are ranked too high because they did not all necessarily play each other? that is a ridiculously stupid argument. you can't just say a team is overrated because it did not play another team. did florida state play alabama or auburn or missouri? nope, so i guess we can't have Florida state #1, because they might lose one or more of those hypothetical games.
