Sam McKewon question from Sparty

[cubsker]

Just another in the long list of guys that think they know more actual football because they get to watch practice.

I see what you did there

Ha!!! Well played

How is this guy viewed by Husker fans? He left MSU out of his top 25 which seems strange...especially from someone covering the Big 10. Predicts Mich St will be 7-5..wow!

He demonstrates over and over again that he knows very little about football. The state of the OWH sports staff is just staggeringly sad compared to what it used to be 20-40 years ago.

So you only watch games because of what someone else tells you?

Just curious.

I only care about Nebraska games....but my point is ..how can you determine who is the best team....based on what?

Honestly, if Sam McKeown thinks Michigan State is going to take a step back, they will.

The dude basically called Nebraska a 7 win team prior to last season, and he also thought the Spartans were the Class of the East a year ago.

His argument makes sense. He thinks MSU will have a year similar to 2012 again.

And yes, I'm in love with Sam McKewon.

Btw, he thinks Nebraska looks like a 10 win team this season.

Matt Schick had us at 7 wins last year too and damn if that didn't rustle my jimmies.

What's it matter. Didn't you hear? It'll be a successful season if NU just makes a bowl game this year.

How can I, personally, determine which teams are the best?

I am confused with your point. Your original post said without preseason polls why would you watch any game or why a particular game was special.

I guess I would say name factors in quite a bit. Success from the previous season is also a factor. I have no desire to watch a top team blow out a smaller FCS team. I will watch LSU/ Wisconsin game even though I think Wisconsin finishes 7-5 and will be very average. So interregion games are usually interesting. But Boise St vs Washington, even if both are ranked, isn't all that interesting to me. As an example.

Get in here and defend yourself from these Spartans.

I understand what you are saying. But it's nice to know that highly ranked teams are playing. Gives more significance to the game for me. Drama, especially if there is an early upset. That team becomes a story.

Oh, and I was speaking of the CFP committee. Not you personally. Should have been more specific.
