VOTE - Runoff Tiebreaker!!!! 1984
« on: February 24, 2019, 12:33:59 AM »
#3 Washington beat #2 Oklahoma
#4 Nebraska beat #1 BYU
Who wins the championship game?

-

#3 - Washington, 10-1, PAC 10 Champions
16th in scoring offense
2nd in scoring defense
59th in strength of schedule

Another great defensive team, giving up over 16 points only once.  Win @ #3 Michigan was only vicotry over ranked team.  Lost only other game vs ranked team (#16 USC).  Did not win Pac-10 conference.  Reached #1 ranking midseason befoe losing to USC.  Poor QB play offset by good RB.  Defense had incredible 27 INTs.




#4 - Nebraska, 9-2, Big 8 Co-Champions
5th in scoring offense
1st in scoring defense
53rd in strength of schedule

Number one scoring defense in country.  Offense failed them in only two losses (@ unranked Syracuse, vs OU).  Wins over #8 UCLA and #9 Oklahoma State.  Rose to #1 ranking before regular-season finale vs OU loss.  Strong running game (obviously) with 2-QB system.  Poor FG kicking (5 made FG in 12 ATT).

you're one of the champions for ranking w/o looking solely at the loss column

#3 Florida cheated, and got caught

slam dunk for Doc Tom

I was showing that it wasn't a slam dunk.  I don't think you know what a slam dunk is.  
If it had been a slam dunk, why did the teams have an equal number of votes in the initial thread?  :1rij:
