Might be time to let 81 go
Embarrassing. After this win, we all look forward to your take having us lose to Chimp and then get curb-stomped by UGA.

Put on your thinking cap for just one second. You're talking about the odds of pulling back to back upsets against ranked teams. It has nothing to do with the players' ability to "get up" for the game, it has to do with the odds of pulling back to back upsets. If your chances of winning either game are one out of three, then the chances of winning both games are one out of nine, without regard to any outside influence such as emotion. They are called "upsets" for a reason. But no,, I guess you're right, the only reason the record is 1-11 is because they always have a let down.Doesn't matter if you agree or don't agree. Numbers don't lie and they tell the story. Or do you believe the 1-11 record is because the second team in these 2 game underdog gauntlets happens to be better than the first team 92% of the time?

Please explain. Be specific.Without posters like me, this place would be just another Gatorcountry.

You've been on the site for 1,900 days and have less than 1,800 posts. I normally forget you are a member here.Zambo, perhaps I read this wrong. But If I read it correctly, you have just failed basic conditional probability. Now that we've won the first game, the odds are, in your example, one out of three that we win the second.
I hope I'm wrong..... Oh **** maybe Ox won't read this. Hell he won't kick me out. I'm good for 6 posts a week toward the ultimate goal.
Please explain. Be specific.
Name the posters that do not give the place life.Oh it would take far too long to go into detail. You just need to be thankful that there are posters like me and some others that give this place life.
I would agree with this 100% except one small issue. LSU has been doing a lot of talking this week. The talking should have the player’s collective attention. If they weren’t fired up before they are nowGoes along with the idea that it's really hard to get super fired up two games in a row. Just like us fans, players are human not robots. Even though the coaches preach going about your business, doing your job, one game at a time, etc, the players invested heavily physically and emotionally in the Auburn game. I know, for whatever reason, I was a lot more fired up for that game than this one, even though this is a great matchup. I'm definitely excited for it, but for some reason not the same anticipation and excitement as the last one, and I get the same sense from the rest of the forum too.
I guess the best thing about teams being in the same situation going 1-11 is you're saying there's a chance. (insert GIF)
Oh uhhh....I meant another poster with 81 in their nameWithout posters like me, this place would be just another Gatorcountry.

Bashing Trask and picking UF to lose every week is "life"?
Nah I oversimplified the problem but you're right, if you flip a coin its always a 50/50 chance no matter how many times in a row the coin has come up either heads or tails on previous flips. My statement is correct about a 3-1 underdog winning twice in a row but it doesn't really tell the story addressed in that tweet about teams being 1-11.Zambo, perhaps I read this wrong. But If I read it correctly, you have just failed basic conditional probability. Now that we've won the first game, the odds are, in your example, one out of three that we win the second.
