Transitive Flop Theory

Utah will not go unbeaten. They have to play at New Mexico then TCU and BYU. BYU game is a "rivalry" game. They could lose all of those games. BYU has a great chance to go unbeaten.

We're gonna have to beat Wiscy, they won't self destruct. Get up early and keep the pressure on.

Please make some semblance of an attempt to place comments in the appropriate thread.

Dude, not our fault. We got such a bad case of it from Notre Dame in 2006 that it took two games to get rid of it entirely. Weis is probably like the Typhoid Mary of flop sweat. In fact an epidemiologist probably oughta take a look at this because USC got the other half of our ND case in the Rose Bowl and gave it to Stanford the next year, and who knows how many times it's split off. We could be looking at a flop sweat pandemic.

Nah, Michigan just sucks.

Not quite a transitive flop, but a transitive loop. Or maybe a transitive flop loop?

Opening week, Maryland beats Miami 32-24. The next week Ohio State holds off Toledo 27-22

Miami then beats Ohio State 24-6, and a week later Temple demolishes Maryland 38-7 at Maryland.

Temple then gets rocked at home in their next game against...yup. Toledo, 36-13.

So: OSU > Toledo > Temple > Maryland > Miami > OSU

Clearly, the rules of logic don't apply to football.

When Temple crushed Maryland after Duh U beat us, I was thinking "Does anyone actually think that Temple would beat us?", mind even before Toledo stomped Temple.
