interesting hypothesis. nobody probably knows the real answer unless somebodies from each university came and told us. the numbers just seem puzzling to me because the opposite of what one figures is what it appears. i believe i did read something that stated alabama had the highest number of...

i see what you are saying, but how do you explain the stats showing a higher average act score for auburn admissions vs those to bama?

as an engineer, i prefer to deal with facts and solid info, just my quirky nature i suppose. sorry if it rubs some the wrong way, but when i post, i try to link where the info comes from instead of just puffing out my chest and saying thats the way it is. i am personally a navy fan, but my...

to answer as briefly as i can, my post regarding TR was due to a graphic posted by ESPN during the heisman show. many posters felt that TR lost a better chance at the heisman due to lack of carries in the second half of games, while in contrast the ESPN graphic showed well over 50% of his yards...

everything you just said is true, its just stating fact in place of misinformation.

thats not the case at all. i prefer to lay out facts instead of using assumptions. i laid out facts both for each school and against each school in rebuttal to a poorly formed argument about which school was better based on acceptance rates. it turns out that it appears the schools are...

yes, thats correct. us news and world report has alabama ranked #75, auburn #82 http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/university-of-alabama-1051 http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/auburn-university-1009

hey, i found the website that has those same exact numbers for acceptance rates: http://collegeapps.about.com/od/collegeprofiles/p/u-alabama.htm http://collegeapps.about.com/od/collegeprofiles/p/Auburn_Profile.htm it wont be very popular for me to point this out, but if you examine the rest...

those are not good criteria for determining whether a school is easier or harder to get into, i wouldnt rely on that as basis for an opinion.

a few years ago spurrier lost a recruit at so carolina cause he couldnt meet the entrance requirements, and signed elsewhere. i think its strictly an institution by institution thing.

probably is, but not necessarily. schools can have different requirements for entrance. this issue is what got paul hornung in hot water when he wanted notre dame to lower the entrance requirements for athletes so they could better compete in today's game.

agreed. i'm surprised someone would actually link a bleacher report article here and not get laughed off the board. theyre just amateur hacks.

the game's in NO and not t-town this time? just a guess. same could be said for those predicting a double digit bama win: bama couldnt even win at home what makes you think bama can win big down in NO? none of any of this matters, like stated before, it will be settled on the field come jan 9.

sounds like an online sports book. the reason they collect $110 up front is so they dont have to come to you later to get the extra $10. they collect $110, you lose, thats it. you win, you get your $110 back plus $100.

i've always paid the juice on a loss :confused:

teams records against the spread this year: bama 8-4 lsu 10-3

in my opinion this shouldnt be much of an issue. welcome.

lol, theyre not for me, trying to help a friend in need out. :)

pretty broad range, but thanks for the reply!

friend of a friend can get tickets for the bcs game through the athletic department in the section where bama player family and friends sit. does anyone know which section number this is? thanks in advance.
