I liked that '96 Florida ...It was actually for me. I liked that '96 Florida team a lot and was very annoyed when Florida State beat them with an "impale Wuerrfel" strategy. I was also annoyed that Spurrier didn't use the shotgun in that game, but that's a different matter. His press conference showing the lateness of the hits, though, was priceless.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08365733949431139562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11175154.post-1157577671865163442006-09-06T16:21:00.000-05:002006-09-06T16:21:00.000-05:00Was that 1996 remark for me?

We'll only know how ...LD, you're absolutely right. We'll only know how good Cal is once they've played some Pac Ten games. That said, HP's premise is that their scheme is so good that it can overcome superior talent. Cal returned a number of starters this year on offense, so the talent excuse doesn't work. This is two straight years that a scheme team met a talent team, HP projected doom for the talent team, and the scheme team got clobbered.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08365733949431139562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11175154.post-1157468164482520232006-09-05T09:56:00.000-05:002006-09-05T09:56:00.000-05:00HL Mencken deserves better.And while I'm by no no ...HL Mencken deserves better.<BR/><BR/>And while I'm by no no no means an apologist, I actually think HP isn't entirely wrong here, though. His point, I think, is that writers shouldn't jump to too many conclusions based upon just the Cal-UT game - and I think that's correct, even though he would likely (and does) jump to conclusions based upon a single game. The thing is that nobody knows anything this early in the season. Cal could end up 5-6 and UT could end up 11-1. What looks like a big win today could be considered not even a decent win in two months. We might've learned some things about particular aspects about teams or personnel. Honestly, though, we don't know much about any teams - because we only have preconceived notions about how good teams might be, and those could be way off. <BR/><BR/>Cal looked bad and UT looked good. But that appearance is only in comparison to what the consensus of people thought beforehand. And it's just a single game. So it really shouldn't say all that much about the relative merits of the SEC and Pac-10. No more than the Auburn-WSU or USC-Arkansas games. Three months from now we can look back and see what we can compare out between these two conferences (i.e., if Cal does end up second the Pac-10 and UT goes 5-6 we might know that the Pac-10 is top heavy), but now, not so much.<BR/><BR/>Naturally, I don't think HP stated things very well, and made excuses which were unnecessary. He should've relied on an "incomplete information" argument instead.LDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416468186977171781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11175154.post-1157429768980523972006-09-04T23:16:00.000-05:002006-09-04T23:16:00.000-05:00I took much delight in watching the sophisticated ...I took much delight in watching the sophisticated "Whiz!
