I like how one or maybe two Shocker fans make a few hyperbolic claims (and are even called out by other Shocker fans) and suddenly ALL Shocker fans are "cocky" or "delusional" or whatever.

It's a good thing we don't judge every Cincy or Tulsa or Husky fan by one or two posters here.

It’s because thinking we’re going to win the AAC means we’re “delusional” to a lot of them because we’ve “never been tested.”

When we do win the AAC suddenly no one will care about how all the Wichita State fans were right and the goalposts will move to “let us know when you win the national championship” or “you weren’t as good as us in the 1970s” or “you will suck when Marshall leaves.”

no one cares that you think that you are going to win..its the win by 30 comments, our backups would beat you comments, the this league is trash comments after ever loss, the extreme overhyping comments... its that level that bother us, look at the preseason projection threads, no one had wsu lower than 2..half of us think you are going to win the league. but some of the comments come off the wrong way, especially considering where you are coming from league wise

i doubt we move the goalpost if you're as good as you say..after you win we will just accept you are good....havent you noticed a few uc fans are also over confident...we almost never say anything about it because theyve already done it, can't knock whats proven...they once made a thread of top 10 players in the league, they put their entire starting 5 in (in a 12 team league)

The capitulation point of a smack talk thread - baby talk. Very nice.

I don't know about hyperbolic, but the acrimony in this thread is definitely parabolic.

It's necessary, it's natural... let it flowwwww.

Can't wait for our game against Cincy. I just hope it's competitive...

Feeling like Rocky was throwing some shade my way. It wasn't "Cincy or Tusla or UCONN fan."

Ha! Nice.

RMS is one of the good guys.

This board has a nice assortment of characters, yourself included. And apparently no small number of folks that need to thicken up the skin. People be running around all "P6! P6! P6!" and then acting surprised when a Top 10 team has some fans that don't take crap off nobody.

Sorry I actually didn't mean you. Too many new kids in class and I'm still getting everybody's names mixed up.

But we are all being programmed to hate WSU fans so ME NO LIKE YOU!

Gotcha. Cheers.

Says WSU hasn't proven it.

Doesn't realize WSU has done more to prove it since the advent of this conference than anyone not named UConn.

Then nobody has proven anything except for UCONN (And Louisville as a member of the conference).

You're pretty much claiming to be the tallest midget.

I'm not really claiming anything. But you are kindof getting at a point that many aren't considering, which is that it's at least if not more likely that non-WSU fans are being the arrogant ones.

here's why using the RPI is stupid this early in the season.

Houston rose 35 places overnight despite not playing. Why? Because Wake Forest beat Illinois.

I'm not using RPI I'm using projections. Which had Wake Forest projected to beat Illinois. Which means that RPI bump was already factored in.

Once again, forgetting the meaning of the words "current" and "projected."

And before you say projections can be wrong, I understand that. But KU isn't losing every game the rest of the season. East Carolina isn't going undefeated. Houston is finishing with a bad OoC SoS. Wichita State is finishing with a good OoC SoS. That is my freaking point. We have enough data to make reasonable assumptions about where teams and numbers are going to end up. Your projected SoS is not going to change 200+ spots throughout the course of the season.
