This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I think the bigger concern is lack of quality wins. by ND Stitch
Right now, one team that we’ve beaten is ranked in the CFP top 25, and they have 3 losses.
What BK has failed to do is go beat top teams. Beat wins in his tenure are Oklahoma 2012, MSU (I forget the year they were ranked when we played them, but they finished the season unranked), and Clemson 2020 without Trevor Lawrence in OT.
That’s it. In 12 years, BK has won maybe 3 games that we thought were appropriate top-level challenges. We have more “good losses” over that time, even more “ass beatings,” than wins.
If we want respect as a title contender, we have to have fewer ass beatings and more wins against top level competition.
