Again. Kill cant control how good the B1G is. Can only beat/lose to those on the schedule. Just doing what he should for most part, beat teams he is better than, lose/be competitive to better teams. CPR cant get the first half that equation right (beating teams we should be better than, i.e NDSU). If he was, I would have zero issues with him. He has a double whammy though. Losing to inferior teams and not even being competitive (for most part) against better teams. His teams get straight up white-washed/blown up
The Jerry Kill Comparison

- Start date
No individual can control how bad the Big Ten is. But you can try to be a rational human being and not make irrational comparisons. Kill's team totally sucks compared to Marshall. See how that works?
List Minnesota's impressive wins? Tell me how impressive they were losing to Illinois? I'll hang up and listen.
That is pretty black and white.
Not impressive to me, but Kill just beat NEB on the road. People STILL talk about isu beating NEB on a fluke day (Kill actually beat NEB, not using umteen turnovers), and when ISU beat NEB they were wayyyyy worse.
A win is a win. I'd take 4-0 starts for ISU if they were all against cupcake st. Wins breed confidence.
My point exactly. "A" win. They have ONE impressive win, not so much that Neb is great but that it's generally very tough place to win even if they aren't great. I just think it's hilarious I'm supposed to bow down to "a" win...especially when it'd combined with losing to Illinois and not being able to move the ball on TCU until the benches were emptied.
and yet it is ranked higher then the big 12 . SOS rankings, #1 SEC, #2 ACC, #3 Big 10, # 4 Big 12, #5 Pac 12, and the Big 10 doesnt have anyone ranked as low as ISU and KU.
He is a good coach. I don't see how that has been denied on here.
BUT playing the weaker competition that he plays every year, has been a benefit to his turnaround there.
And what on earth would make you think that this would automatically translate in to winning in a better conference. You saw what happened to them when they played TCU. They would not do much better against OU, Baylor, etc.
We'll see how much progress has been made in Madtown this weekend. I'll be cheering for the Gophers, and if they beat the Badgers in Camp Randall I will be impressed.
