A Unified Theory of Duck Football
So...Geoff Schwartz et al.:
I love me some Schwartz.
But...here's how I see it.
1. Ultimate Goal at our level is Natty....not becoming Bowl Eligible or what not.
2. To get to the Natty....you have to get into the Playoffs. Fact. No Debate.
3. Once you get to the Playoffs...both teams have to play the game. Everybody on this Board knows that once you are in a game...ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.
4. That's why you have to get into the Game.
5. Schwartz and co.....what makes you think that we will be better next year?
While I wholly expect to be...YOU NEVER KNOW...ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.
Injuries, sanctions, etc.
You CANNOT, with certainty, plot out your future.
6. So...when opportunity knocks...KICK THE FRICKEN DOOR DOWN AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS!!
Respectfully...
EDIT: CASE IN POINT: EVANSVILLE (??) BEAT KENTUCKY TONIGHT IN MEN'S BB.
IF EVANSVILLE DID NOT "MAKE IT TO THE GAME" THEY NEVER WOULD HAVE HAD THE CHANCE TO KNOCK OFF KENTUCKY!!
As my GF says...."that's why they play the games!!"
