No one who frequents here plays or coaches for them.
360lb offensive linemen with the agility of gymnasts?
Few of our fans have ever heard of it.
None of them have ever made a mess in my kitchen.
And we know this how? Because the talking heads and the good teams coaches say so? And is that to say that there are bad teams that don't have so-called "mental toughness?"
Read my op.....I posted this is what all good teams have in common. I highly doubt that ALL bad teams have mental toughness.
Fair enough. Since it's impossible to prove either way, I'd be willing to bet that some good teams overcome a lack of mental toughness, whatever that is, by an abundance of talent.
I dunno. Without the ability to define what it is or measure it, it's a moot point.
What I learned this weekend is that the good teams have offensive linemen who move well and block competently, as well as WR’s that actually catch the ball and create separation.
if we measure the talent in terms of avg star rating on recruits, Penn State would be similar to UMich. OSU would be tier above both UM and PSU.
besides some good fortune/luck during the season with things like injuries, the QB position stands out. It appears the top teams throughout the year had strong dual threat QBs. this is actually what OSU has missed since Justin Fields. UMich has that type of QB now, but has not always had that.
OL and DL also seems to be common thread of top teams.
Stolen sign program, a lot of slobbering southerners money and a DL for $100 Alex?
Ok fair enough. It's just my opinion. I have absolutely no proof of this. It is just my humble opinion.
Did you actually read my op? I posted that all good teams have mental toughness in common. That's not to say that all bad teams lack mental toughness. Some do of course. This is not based on fact....it's simply my opinion.
Yes I did which is why it was surprising that you dismissed more talent as a qualifying factor.
Did I dismiss it? I don't believe so. I simply pointed out ONE common characteristic. There could be two or three common characteristics. Just because I simply named one of these doesn't mean I dismissed others.
