@Switz Congrats man! Well deserved.

@RickRunGood Agreed anyone with Knapp gets Haotong.

The logical solution with the least impact is to just get the replacement. It's not perfect but better than most other solutions. I don't think you should be any to swap into any player after the tournament starts.

@schneider610 @Underdog @ThePME @tjlaessig @TheModelManiac @SkyHookDFS @TheBadgeBros Awesome work!

@ameansy @david_kitchen @ACDerryberry You need PR/comm help. Completely tone deaf and shows everything for where RG is headed.

Fair point, Kitch. I don’t want to just sit back and let people think we’re dead…nor did I want to not address what happened to those guys and note how important they are to me. And FWIW, I can still feel the best is yet to come for reasons that are independent of what happened yesterday. Regardless, apologies if my intentions were communicated poorly

By now it's no secret that RG lost some talented people yesterday. The 3 guys who departed were 3 of my closest friends at Better Collective. So it goes without saying how much I am going to miss them. But I can assure you that @RotoGrinders isn't going anywhere. I know firsthand the talented people we still have on our team, and I truly believe that the best is yet to come.

@WorldWideWob @JonKrawczynski Randle went to war against one of the best 🐐

The three big Randle defensive possessions vs. Wemby in the 4th quarter

@JonKrawczynski Better than Wolves vs Nuggets on Christmas?

This has to be up there for game of the year so far in the league. Two really, really good teams just throwing haymakers.

@KramerHolle We saw everything we needed to for 4 quarters of football. Tech couldn’t even put points on the board against the Ducks. Big12 is overrated.

I’ll never get over how much the committee underrated BYU and the Big 12. The first one-loss power conference team outside the top 10 ever. Just so frustrating.

@BYUbluThru And we just how bad the Big12 is today.

Imagine the CFP Championship comes down to TTU and Miami Two teams from the conferences deemed worthy of only one team each It would be so satisfying Especially after all the SEC/B1G propaganda shoved down our throats all year

@TheWildUte JMU played the Ducks tougher than TTech! Big 12 is overrated and it was on full display for the nation today

It’s crystal clear that Utah and BYU both deserved CFP spots over: Alabama. Ole Miss. Oklahoma. Texas A&M. Tulane. JMU.

Texas Tech, BYU, and Utah all should’ve made the playoffs.

@DLSmith93 Agreed. At times JMU had defense on their heels. Never once felt that today against Tech.

So we all agree JMUs offense is better than Texas Tech’s, yeah?

@jacksettleman The bama fan crowd is something else. Echo chamber.

I said 3-0 or 0-3. Congrats to Bama… But Indiana is my favorite bet of the year. I simply don’t understand how Bama keeps it close Open to feedback but Bama is projected to rush for 75 less yards and while Simpson has 22 more passing yards…their receivers are all projected less than Indiana I just don’t get it

@geoffschwartz And that is why we play the game!

oReGoN aLlOwEd 500 yArDs to JMU. What a silly talking point this week. A freaking shutout against one of the best offenses in the sport! What a performance from the defense.

@BoxScore_FB Really? We saw a Tech team today put up ZERO points.

I’m telling you, no one really understands how good Texas Tech is yet

@ultimatejazzfan @BazzanaSavant @BearBetsPod @geoffschwartz After all this, Tech gets dominated and puts up ZERO points. Oregon dominated on all 3 aspects of the game: offense, defense, special teams.

BOTTOM LINE Texas Tech was: • A top-2 offense nationally • A top-5 defense nationally • Better than Oregon on offense • Better than Oregon on defense • The more complete team by scoring, efficiency, and matchup control If Oregon had this exact profile, they’d be called “unstoppable.” Texas Tech just didn’t get the logo boost. Texas Tech vs Oregon — Why Tech Was Better on BOTH Offense and Defense OFFENSE • Scoring Offense Texas Tech averaged about 42.5 points per game, which ranked #1–#2 nationally. Oregon averaged about 38–39 points per game, ranking top 10. Scoring is the only offensive stat that directly wins games. Advantage: Texas Tech • SP+ Offensive Rating (Opponent-Adjusted Efficiency) Texas Tech’s offense ranked #2 nationally in SP+. Oregon’s offense ranked roughly #12–#15. SP+ adjusts for opponent strength, pace, and garbage time. Clear Advantage: Texas Tech • Explosiveness & Efficiency Texas Tech ranked top-3 nationally in explosive plays, points per drive, and yards per drive. Oregon was very good, but not at Tech’s level in efficiency. Advantage: Texas Tech ⸻ DEFENSE • Scoring Defense Texas Tech allowed about 10.9 points per game, ranking top 3–5 nationally. Oregon allowed about 16–17 points per game, ranking top 10. That ~6-point gap per game is massive at the elite level. Clear Advantage: Texas Tech • Run Defense Texas Tech ranked #1 in the entire country in rushing yards allowed. Oregon ranked very well, but not #1. Run defense controls tempo, forces long downs, and wins playoff games. Huge Advantage: Texas Tech • Defensive Efficiency Texas Tech ranked higher in: – Opponent points per drive – Defensive stop rate – Red-zone TD prevention Oregon allowed more “bend-but-don’t-break” scoring. Texas Tech simply shut teams down. Advantage: Texas Tech • Total Defense (Yards Allowed) Oregon ranked about 4th nationally. Texas Tech ranked about 5th nationally. This is the only category Oregon slightly wins — by one spot — and it’s the least important defensive stat because yards don’t equal points and pace inflates totals. Minimal Edge: Oregon ⸻ FINAL SCORECARD Scoring Offense: Texas Tech SP+ Offense: Texas Tech Explosiveness: Texas Tech Scoring Defense: Texas Tech Run Defense: Texas Tech (#1 nationally) Defensive Efficiency: Texas Tech Total Defense (yards): Oregon (by one spot)

.@geoffschwartz says Texas Tech hasn't faced a QB like Dante Moore 👀 "Tech has not played Oregon's offense yet. They have not played a quarterback like Dante Moore, and an offensive line like Oregon."

@RTB_II @geoffschwartz Had more than 100 yards of offense than Tech. Don’t need much offense when you score ZERO!

@mnduckfever @geoffschwartz I wouldn’t say yalls offense dominated much of anything. But otherwise you’re right! Good game.

All these numbers and Oregon is the favorite. 🤷‍♂️

@RTB_II @geoffschwartz Brand bias just kicked Texas Techs a$$ on the field today! Absolute domination on every aspect of the game. Offense, defense and special teams.

@geoffschwartz It’s called brand bias. Hope that helps. Tech is the new kid on the block and people don’t fully understand what’s about to hit them. That defense is legit and I can only hope Oregon’s players are doubting it as much as talking heads like you.

@jacksettleman You couldn’t even pick the correct defense in this game. Or is Tech offense that overrated?

This tech defense is the best in the playoff

@krassenstein Do you normally see parents dropping off their kids at a daycare?

To all the random YouTube kids out there with no life experience… - Daycares lock their doors even when they are open so that kids don’t run out and so that nutcases like Nick Shirley don’t run in. - Daycares do NOT provide tours of their facilities when children are present. - Calling a business “fraud” when they aren’t is defamation.
