Insights from 2015-2024
Top Performers (Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Clemson, Michigan): Each has 30+ November wins in the past decade, proving they peak when it matters most.

Second Tier (Notre Dame, Oklahoma, LSU, Washington): Strong closers, but with a few rivalry or trap-game losses.

Pretenders (Texas, Oklahoma State, Penn State, Miami, Texas A&M, Oregon): Often enter November ranked, but late-season collapses have cost them playoff or New Year's Six opportunities.

The difference is depth and consistency: Elite programs sustain dominance through injuries and pressure, while pretenders often lack the roster depth or mental edge to finish strong.

Summary: From 2015-2024, the gold standard closers are Alabama (33-4), Ohio State (32-5), Georgia (31-5), Clemson (30-6), and Michigan (28-8). In contrast, Texas, Oklahoma State, Penn State, Miami, Oregon, and Texas A&M have reputations as pretenders, with late-season collapses that cost them playoff chances.

How does what any team did in 2015 matter to what their team is in 2025?

Ask sip. They're constantly reminding us how many times they beat us during the Roosevelt/Taft/Woodrow Wilson administrations like it's the height of relevance

They live in the pre-1970s. They glory in sh#t that is 60 years old.

Moderators, is there a way that a thread can be flagged as BAS?
Or maybe these threads could be moved into a BAS Club file?
Thank you for your consideration.

Every day is one day closer to people realizing nobody cares what you ask Chat GPT to do.

Yep. When was the last time you heard someone say: "I searched Google and this is what I found"?

It will just be part of life.

Artificial ignorance is so much less valuable than actual…

People and organizations that live in the past , typically have little or a marginal future.

I always think of Michael Scott's quote about Wikipedia when people post something they asked Chat GPT about.

don't know who this Chad fella is; don't care.

To anyone who still doesn't know:

ChatGPT isn't some all-knowing hivemind. It's just some machine extensively trained with internet data to spit out the most probabilistically appropriate sequence of words.

These types of threads really aren't that impressive or mindblowing.

ChatGPT 67 sucks

AI sucks. I recently asked the last time A&M went 6-0 and it told me 1994

Of course it only looked at an article from 2016 so it was wrong.

A new prompt for you, OP…

"Ok, now assume that unlike most of the last 10 years, schools and donors can legally pay recruits and players money in exchange for signing and playing football. What does that do to Texas A&M's contender status in college football?"

Yep. Chat is 100% accurate on **** I know nothing about and 60% accurate on things I am an expert on. haha

Also, ironically, I saw data that Chat's 2 main sources of info are overwhelmingly Reddit and Wiki.

Bottom line, this season has games to play. While A&M is playing great football, this season isn't over. Take these self-appointed experts with a grain of salt and let's not get overconfident. No one would be more thrilled to see a big O in the loss column at the end of the season than me!

My great-grandfather was rich.
