Other than Michigan, who beat them by 39, and Pitt, their next toughest road game was this past weekend. They needed every one of the half dozen turnovers from Indiana to win that game. I give them all the credit in the world for beating OSU (thou it's not as impressive as winning at Clemson), but road wins against Purdue, Indiana, and Rutgers is really not all that impressive, and none of them are as good as the three teams Pitt has lost to on the road. Point being it's very likely PSU loses to all those teams as well.
2-loss PSU in the top 10 because of that signature OSU win...

My reading comprehension is fine. You posited that you can't tell if North Carolina is better than Indiana or not. Which means that you either don't watch college football or have no idea what it is that you are watching. I think even you realized how dumb that was when you got called out on it, so now you want to say that you think that North Carolina is better but there is no way to know for sure. So consistency isn't your strong suit, even when posting in the same thread.
Why is everyone even feeding into this comparing and contrasting of schedules with PSU? Pitt played them on the field and WON. Beat it losers 42-39
UNC lost 34-3 to a mediocre VaTech team and they just lost to Duke. UNC also lost to a mediocre UGA team 3 of IU's losses were to Top 20 teams. IU is a halfway decent program. They played tOSU & Michigan tough last year. They went bowling and lost in 2 OT's to a Duke team that is better than this year's Duke team. I sure as hell wouldn't put any money on the game if UNC played IU. Does that answer your question Mr Walt Harris left of his own volition?
What I think is dumb is to say PSU would go 0-4 against VaTech, UNC, Miami, and OK State. That's batshit crazy.

Hahaha. Those teams probably aren't going to get a chance to play in a decent bowl game.
They played without 3 OL starters Saturday.
Roll Damn Tide!
-Indiana's best win is Ball State, a 10 point win over Ball State. Ball friggin State. A team record 3-7 Ball State. There are 7 teams in the Big Ten this year that are complete garbage. Indiana is one of them.
-North Carolina has a road win against a Top 15 ranked Florida State, a 6 win Miami, 6 win Pitt, and 6 win Georgia Tech. Each of those teams has a chance to win 9 games this year. Indiana's best chance is Ball State scraping up 1 more win. Because Rutgers, Maryland, these teams are dogshit.
-You seem to have some hardon for current poll rankings. We'll revisit this thread in 2 weeks when the poll rankings change.
-This guy has to be that Dion Lewis fan guy that went golfing for the year after he lost a bet with me in regard to Pitt / Penn State predictions when he predicted Penn State to beat Pitt by 3 TD's.
Uh no. But what does that have to do with the eggs in China. You act like the bowl season is going to change my mind about the strength of the Coastal division. It's not.
-Pitt beat Penn State and Clemson. So I dont really care anymore what your opinion is of the coastal. And Pitt would run Indiana right off the field.
You claim tha the coastal is terrible, yet every team in the coastal is better than indiana, Minnesota and Iowa..
You claim the coastal is the worst p5 divisions...when its actually probably one of the best.
Teams like PSU and the other big ten pretenders will be exposed during bowl season.
If you think Pitt would run Indiana off the field it shows how little fans actually can be objective about teams these days.
I'm not saying or claiming Pitt would lose to Indiana, however Indiana has a more than capable offense to throw up points on the board. Pitts offense has shown that their offense can score evident by their ppg averages through ten games.
Each have glaring issues on D, that being the case, I'd say it would be safe to assume a Big 12 type of shootout between each program realistically looking at Pitt winning and pulling away late in a trackmeet.

Just because we beat PSU & Clemson doesn't mean we would run Indiana off the field. Did we run VaTech, UNC, Miami, Marshall or GaTech off the field?
You know, 2 weeks ago you told us that Miami couldn't score 20 points on anyone. ANYONE. So if giving up 51 points to Miami and watching Watson set a new ACC record for passing yardage in a game gives you confidence that we would run IU off the field, I don't know what to say. Unless it's the Crimson Tide, this sport is pretty much week to week for everybody else. IU isn't good by any stretch, but they aren't horrible either.
How do you think our Coastal Rep will do in the playoffs or the ACC Championship game?
The best team in the ACC and maybe the Country is clemson... who by the way just LOST to a coastal team.
The coastal is legit, and one of the best divisions in college football top to bottom.
For argument sake, which divison is better and why, SEC EAST or ACC COASTAL?
I think these two divisions are mirror images of each other and am curious to hear you or someone else's opinion, looking for an objective view without bias if possible, thanks!
-The Coastal blew out the Atlantic last year in head to head games. Ill let the rest of the games play out and we will see how wins this year in head to head. So far, 2 of the Top 3 teams in the Atlantic got picked off and lost to the Coastal.
Clemson almost lost to Troy, NC State, FSU, Louisville, and Auburn. AND they just LOST to a Coastal team. Ever heard of the phrase Clemsoned? That's what they do. I stated all a long that I didn't think the Clemson game was an automatic loss for us.
BTW, I think Bama's resume is a little more impressive, but maybe thats just me.
So how do you think the Coastal is going to do in the playoffs or ACC Championship game?
-You just named 4 teams that Clemson beat that are all ranked. LOL
A few things about Clemson that I believe to be valid.
First I feel like the fans across the country of college football judge Clemson to a degree based on what we witnessed from last years club and expected the same carry over, fair or not I believe that to be true, but thats only my opinion.
Lastly, even with the amount of close games Clemson found a way to hold on until this past weekend, albeit it, the same FG Pitt made to beat Clemson, is the same FG NCSU missed to keep Clemson unbeaten at the time.
As far as the Coastal division of the ACC goes, I dont believe the coastal will be a factor come ACC title game is concerned, the margin is to great between Clemson and L'Ville compared to whomever wins the Coastal. I know Pitt just came to Clemson and beat them, and UNC beat FSU early in the season, but as many national guys have said and the theme seems to be unfair to a degree to Pitt, the talk is more about what Clemson didnt do compared to what Pitt did to win the game, if that makes sense.
I was responding to a post that said Clemson MAY be the best team in the country.
I'm still confused about what your opinion is of Miami. Want to clarify?
Each division does not suck, they each contain some very talented teams, however they lack that true powerhouse program within their division to justify and validate each of their particular divisions.
Great way to elaborate.
UT beat Tech head to head, and UGA fourth place team beat UNC and each of those teams do not currently occupy top spot in their division.
Why can't UNC beat UGA. Why can't VaTech keep a game close with Tennessee?
Newsflash: UGA & Tennessee aren't very good.
So two games is going to dictate which division is better?? Sorry, but it doesnt work that way.
UGA just beat top 10 Auburn btw. Chaney blew a number of games for them because he is one of the worst OCs in the P5 and they have a new HC who is still learning.
Yeah, it tells me that you have no idea what you are talking about.
No, wait, that's not fair. It CONFIRMS that you have no idea what you are talking about.
