I used to be irritated by these types of CB posts. Now I just find them comical. I mean junior high level logic is so common on CB.
I rarley bother with the ridiculous logic on CB, but sometimes I get a kick out of shredding their 7th grade level logic like I am going to do here.
Like tOSU playing their “third stringers”. Well, at least this time it’s an upgrade from the “practice squad”, which is what they usually describe tOSU as in the Rose Bowl game. As if CJ Stroud, Marvin Harrison Jr. Jackson-Smith Njigba, etc are low quality players. And, of course no mention that Utah had some serious challenges with injuries in that game also. I mean, a RB playing CB against Stroud, Njigba, etc might be the biggest mismatch ever in the Rose Bowl (no disrespect to Bernard).
Then there is the talk about Utah being a “slightly above average” team. I mean let’s just ignore how many national opinions that say otherwise. Maybe the dozens of national analysts can go to CB for whatever secrets they have that nobody in the nation has discovered that says Utah is somehow an average team.
And, I just don’t get the ridiculous opinion that the Big-XII is leaps and bounds better than the Pac-12. I won’t even bother tearing apart that nugget.
Also, the Pac being historically bad in 2021. Yes, the Pac was down but we know that is due to the slow start of the conference which still had lingering effects of Covid due to playing the least of any conference in 2020. But you know what? Utah had to deal with those post-Covid issues also. So let’s not act like winning the conference title that year somehow deserves an asterisk. And with that, ask any tOSU fan if they were nervous throughout the RB game. I saw TONS of online respect from Buckeye fans towards Utah after that game. But we’re just average according to the junior high club at CB.
Also, about last year. 8-4 in conference play with the best year ever in the history of the Pac-12. Junior high level logic wants to somehow diminish tOSU for being down players in the Rose Bowl, but wants to ignore that Utah went 8-4 last season while playing 3rd, 4th, and 5th string QBs all season with historically bad injuries elsewhere also all season long against the best competition the conference has ever had. So players being out “counts” when discussing tOSU in the RB, but doesnt “count” when talking about Utah last season. Yup.
Anybody with an ounce of logic knows that almost any team playing QBs 3 through 5 throughout the season will probably end up at or near the bottom of whatever conference they are in. Utah did very admirable given the circumstances. This definitely demonstrates a team that isn’t average.
Utah may or may not win the XII conference. But to say Utah is just average and therefore shouldn’t be in consideration of the conference championship at the start of the season is just pure Cougarboard nonsense.
Does CB enjoy making their community look ridiculous with opinions like these listed above which are so prevalent on CB?
You gotta wonder.
Now that was fun.
